    I'm a 68 year old American who grew up on TV since it began.
    I am here to say that "Detectorists" is the finest television series of it's genre ever produced. I realize of course that it's a bold statement, considering the thousands of really great British, American and Global shows made in the last 60+ years. (Many might disagree with my opinion (and I realize that it's just my personal opinion and that my comments are not meant to create a "contest").
    But I think we can ALL agree that Mr. Crook is a bona fide, cinematic genius (writer, producer, actor) of the First Order.
    From his initial concept to casting, story line, script, pacing, editing, sets, location, music, lighting and MOST of all... that brilliant and sublime humor!
    I just cannot praise this series and Mr. Crook high enough!
    And Johnny Flynn's unique, tender, clever and perfect theme song coupled with his honest and infectious performance easily rivals anything produced by Dylan.

    Hello, my name is Martin Schmitz from Germany, and I have never seen such a beautiful, fantastic series as "Detectorists" in my life, these films are so humorous and full of love that one would like to watch all episodes together, it is already like an addiction, but a nice pleasant addiction! I've seen a lot of films in my 54 years, but I've never been more delighted by films like the series "Detectorists", the actors and the script are unique, just close to the life of the simple, that's what makes this series so likeable. "Detectorists" deserves a sequel with new episodes, many people would certainly be grateful for it and these many people are waiting with great longing for a continuation of this unique wonderful series that touches the hearts of so many people! Please consider a sequel, you would make an audience of millions very happy. Kind regards, Martin Schmitz

    Will you search through the loamy earth for me
    Climb through the briar and bramble
    I'll be your treasure
    I felt the touch of the kings
    And the breath of the wind
    I knew the call of all the song birds
    They sang all the wrong words
    I'm waiting for you
    I'm waiting for you
    Will you swim through the briny sea for me
    Roll along the oceans floor
    I'll be your treasure
    I'm with the ghost of the men
    Who can never sing again
    There's a place follow me
    Where a love lost at sea
    Is waiting for you

    My wife and I absolutely love this show and have watched the box set several times. The script and acting are so perfect and the beautiful Suffolk countryside and the filming in the picturesque village of Framlingham fit so perfectly. If you ever get a chance to visit this little gem of a place then do so. The village hall, church, Maggie's shop, Two Brewers pub and Framlingham Castle (not featured in the show) are all within a five minute walk of each other and we love to visit whenever we are down from Sheffield. All the actors involved are so perfectly cast and yes the theme tune is also an absolute gem. If you love this show then check out Mackenzie Crooks take on Worzel Gummidge.... its a treat.

    I first watched this when it debuted but it didn't catch with me until a good few years later. I started watching it through the summer of 2020, in the middle of UK lockdown. My lifelong friend and I would meet outside and sit by the river, a little walk across the fields from where I live. We would sit by the shore, drinking tea, eating biscuits and watching the landscape. This song absolutely reminds me of that time. I also recommended Detectorists to him and he loves it too. This song is absolutely perfect as it encapsulates those lazy warm summer afternoons chatting with an old friend.

      My father died a year before the first series came out but I know he would have loved it - Mackenzie Crook in this resembles my father in some ways in this series which to me is a comfort. I never would have found this gem of a series if not for my grief counsellor at school.
      It is a show to be shared with someone, even if they are no longer with us.
