Product Information

But the show is also about recognising that everything you need in life might be right in front of you, from the loving partner who tolerates your silly obsessions, to the green hills at the edge of your humdrum town that are as beautiful as any far-flung vista.

Jones has a number of film roles lined up, with uncertainty now hanging over when a second series of his own BBC comedy, Don't Forget The Driver, can begin production. Five years on from the events of series three, the Danebury Metal Detecting Club is under threat from developers who want to close the hall. For items that are dispatched using our standard service, we ask that you wait 14 days from the date of dispatch before reporting any items as undelivered. This is a comedy in large part, but the hook is in how the weave a fine tapestry of feelings, human nature and humor into each and every show.The cinematography – this time capturing a hare, a hedgehog and a white fallow deer wandering by – is still like the work of master English landscape painters brought into three dimensions.

Co-starring Toby Jones, Rachael Stirling and Lucy Benjamin, it revolves around the lives of detectorists in northern Essex. Scouring the fields of the English countryside, they are burning for that one find which could change their. This is a comparatively vulgar raking of the same ground, and the rift the big news causes between the pair is, by Detectorists standards, as unbalancing and alien as it would be if Crook packed the whole cast off to Torremolinos. Meet Andy ( Mackenzie Crook) and Lance ( Toby Jones) - two eager detectorists who share a dream of finding a buried treasure that will change their lives, in a deeply humorous and heart-warming portrayal of male friendship and metal-detecting.

A quiet afternoon in the clean air and a pint of local ale in the pub with a friend afterwards is reward enough. Mackenzie Crook and Toby Jones are Andy and Lance, two friends who find common ground as part of the Danebury Metal Detecting Club. DMDC president Terry (Gerard Horan) has painstakingly authored a talk on “the pros and cons of calibrated balance versus pulse induction when coping with ground mineralisation”, which he will happily deliver for the club’s six members.

She was a joy to work with on the second and third series, a brilliant actor and utterly hilarious between takes," he said of Dame Diana.

One of the other epiphanies Detectorists diffidently nudges us towards is that humanity is made of these small commitments, just as every arrowhead and broken belt buckle the detectorists dig up adds to the grand patchwork of history. If like me you happen to enjoy the excellent TV series Detectorists which stars Mackenzie Crook and Toby Jones then you’re probably going to be interested in a couple of upcoming releases. The characters would be holidaying abroad, perhaps, or at least loading up the car and going to an unfamiliar part of the UK. Andy and Lance discover evidence of a major historical battleground on that farmland, prompting excitement about the one huge find they’ve always been waiting for; briefly, it looks alarmingly as though it might turn into something akin to the climax of Only Fools and Horses.

Unfortunately, cast member Diana Rigg, who played Veronica, Andy's mother-in-law, died in September of this year. Crook is currently filming the third series of Sky Atlantic's historical-fantasy drama Britannia, and is expected to film a full series of Worzel Gummidge next summer.Storylines for supporting characters that would have flourished in a full fourth season struggle to get a foothold in a 75-minute special. Series 3 ended with Andy (Crook) and Lance (Jones) seemingly finding both their literal and allegorical gold.
