There does not seem to be a date and time yet. Must remember to watch out for it.
Truly great news. I still wake up every morning to the Detectorist soundtrack by Johnny Flynn.

I love the subtlety in the writing and directing. I think it was in the first series, one of the visual gags was Andy always hunched over pushing something; he spends all day pushing a line marker along a road, or a weed killer, and then what does he do in his precious time off? He's in a field, hunched over a metal detector, "pushing" that along too. Genius!
I have just seen a trailer for the Christmas episode - 09:00 pm Boxing Day, on BBC 2.
On at 9pm!
Well it didn't dissapoint, loved it!
I'd never seen this before but watched last night's epic-length episode. What a joy.
So good to have another episode. Makes me realise how much I miss it. Such a change of pace from so much other television. Such a slow and subtle show with great writing and cinematography. Superb.

Watched it tonight and loved it.
Slightly disappointed by the lack of Aimee-Ffion Edwards, but I guess that was only to be expected
I can't quite describe how much I enjoy this pregramme. It's kinda like when the tranqs kick in (so I hear). Was the lack of Aimee-Ffion Edwards compensated for by the appearance of Dr Alice Roberts?
That means you have three series and a previous Christmas Special to watch. You lucky bastard. You lucky, lucky bastard.

I've said before, detecting is just like this series, the people you meet, some of the things that happen on rallies and the joy of finding something worthwhile is so accurate to what us detectorists see and feel.
Its really well written and Mckenzie being a detectorist in real life is spoilt for ideas, he must read the forums and hang out at rallies so the material he comes up with is already there in front of him.
On top of that the filming is perfect, the nature, the feeling of calm, being out in a field with lots of space comes across so well, its a great hobby and the series shows it in good light.
Oh, and I have met the beautiful Dr Alice Roberts who is well thought of in the detecting world in more ways than one! Nothing to do with detecting unfortunately..
Thought it was Professor?

I watched it last night, it was delightful.
Watched and enjoyed it last night - I wonder if there will be any more?
Makes you want to go and stand in a field.
Cheers,
Neil.
Just watched this and it was by far the best thing on TV over Christmas in my eyes, murkywaters is correct, they have got the detecting details bang on.

Agreed the Christmas special , was just that AND they managed to introduce an edgy feel. Mckenzie certainly has some worry lines on his face though.
Finally got around to watching the Christmas special tonight.
Great scene setting and scripting with all of the original characters. It contains just enough dialogue to get the job done.
Watching this reminded me why I enjoyed the series so much but perverse as it sounds, I'd prefer if he never wrote any more Detectorists but just left on this high.
