I've only just started watching the Detectorists on catchup, after Joo mentioned it. It had completely passed me by. Will have to look out for the first series. You're right though, it's got a "Summer Wine" vibe to it.

RE: British TellySeries 3 was shown in 2002, so it's been a long time coming. I didn't realise it was out until I spotted something yesterday. It's only 3 episodes. I've seen some "re-visiting old series" before and they've been a bit meh, but I think this one hits all the right marks. It was Royston Vasey now, but with the hint of then. Hedgehogs rock.

RE: British TellyLoved all 3 series of The Detectorists, sad series 3 was the last but they left it perfectly. A lovely gentle watch and an absolute joy. Out Now!

Upstart Crow has been one of the highlights of the year for me, along with W1A and Quacks. And always a Morse fan (well, I did live in Oxford) I'm thoroughly enjoying picking up the backstory with Endeavour. |
RE: British TellyI love Morse too - it lulls me to sleep every time - so annoying, but then I can watch it all over again to find out who dunnit. I've not found out whodunmostofem. I've been watching Happy Valley tonight. Apparently James Norton, who plays the psycho baddie, has had death threats because he's so nasty in it. |
