Writer, director and star Mackenzie Crook has said that this is the last series of Detectorists. If that's the case it will be a great shame.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 8th November 2017Detectorists series 3 review
For, as so much of this delightful series, while it seems like nothing much is happening, there's such a lot beneath the surface, hidden from view. What a perfect metaphor metal detecting turns out to be.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 8th November 2017Detectorists, BBC4, review
Metalhead comedy full of tender moments.
Bernadette McNulty, i Newspaper, 8th November 2017Detectorists returns to unearth more comic gold: review
It's almost compulsory in Detectorists reviews to say the show unearthed comic gold. Indeed it did. If you're yet to join the DMDC (Danebury Metal Detecting Club), treat yourself. Treasures await.
Michael Hogan, The Telegraph, 8th November 2017Detectorists is an utter joy
Detectorists is an absolute televisual treasure. I'm delighted that Series 3 is here.

What's On Stage, 13th September 2017Detectorists Series 3 confirmed
BBC Four has confirmed a third series of Detectorists, the sitcom about a group of treasure hunters written by and starring Mackenzie Crook.
British Comedy Guide, 31st March 2017A crack squad of British actors are on parade in this loving homage to the cherished TV sitcom. Toby Jones is the pompous Captain Mainwaring, Bill Nighy the insouciant Sergeant Wilson and Michael Gambon is Private Godfrey, while Catherine Zeta-Jones brings some unlikely glamour to wartime Walmington-on-Sea. Hamish McColl's screenplay has its moments, but can't quite access the lovely, characterful warmth of TV series writers David Croft and the recently deceased Jimmy Perry.
Paul Howlett, The Guardian, 18th November 2016Detectorists won't be coming back this year
Fans of Detectorists, the Bafta-winning Mackenzie Crook and Toby Jones BBC4 metal detecting comedy, may have a bit of a wait for a third series. Creator (and director) Crook is currently still thinking about making another chunk of the comedy.
