Detectorists- Series - NR – BBC - Mackenzie Crook (Writer, director and star) as Andy and Lance (Toby Jones), amateur metal detectorists in Essex, are two oddballs, scouring the English countryside for treasure, specifically, gold or better yet, Saxon loot! Surprisingly, the world of high-stakes metal detecting is turbulent, as are their personal lives. Becky (Rachel Stirling), Andy’s girlfriend, is none too pleased with the amount of time he sinks into his fruitless hobby. Lance, meanwhile, is still hopelessly in love with his ex-wife, who is happily remarried and clueless to Lance’s feelings. And then there are the next town’s detectorists, trying to make inroads on the local farmer’s fields.                                      -
