Radio Times review

The new campaign of the Danebury Metal Detecting Club is causing ructions. Peter the visiting German (Daniel Donskoy) is appealing for the club's help to locate a crashed WW2 plane, but for Lance, it simply isn't history: "If it hasn't been forgotten, I'm not interested." In any case, Lance has other distractions, listening to David Essex while getting spruced up. Smooth!

The joy of Detectorists is precisely the fact that it isn't earth-shattering; rather, a succession of entrancing moments. Becky zoning out - the way people do - during a work meeting. Or Sophie defending her fellow amateur archaeologists when Peter ridicules their peculiarities. "They are weird, so I like them," she says. And more good news: Lance and Andy's rivals, "Simon and Garfunkel", are back.
