I have been recently watching my DVD of “The Detectorists”. Probably for the 3rd time. Hint, it never seems to get old.
It is not too much of a stretch to equate The Danbury Metal Detecting Club members with our Friendly Metal Detecting Forum members.
I would venture to say our Friendly Forum is more like the Danbury Metal Detecting club than any of the other online metal detecting forums.
With this in mind, it may be a fun exercise to decide which of our members would come closest to the below listed cast members of the TV show “The Detectorists”.
Andy
Lance
Becky - Andy’s girlfriend (Rachel Sterling, real daughter of Diana Rigg)
Russell – hunt buddy of Hugh
Sheila - Terry’s wife
Sophie -
Terry - president of club
Hugh – hunt buddy of Russell
Art/Phil – ½ of opposition
Paul – ½ of opposition
Kate - Daughter of Lance
Toni – Lance’s girl friend
Peter – German nighthawk
Larry Bishop – eccentric land owner
Tony – Maggie’s boyfriend
Maggie – Lance’s ex-wife
The Mayor of Danbury
Veronica – Becky’s mom (Diana Rigg)
Varde – female club member
Louise – female club member
Here is a character guide for the show:

I really don’t know of a more enjoyable TV series about metal detecting.
If any Friendly members have not seen this quite delightful show it can be streamed for free at the below link,
