Decent, init? Mostly filmed locally too. And a mention of Portman Road.

When I first moved away I watched that show all the time. Really made me pine for Suffolk. It's a really good show too.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm a huge fan of this. Really like the humour and emotion that it conveys in equal measures

I always thought it was set in the West country, or is this another example of poor Suffolk accents on the telly?

Definitely the Suffolk/Essex borderlands. Portman Road was name checked in an early episode. So, yes, you have to give a little bit of a pass on the accents.

I though he (Mckenzie Crook) had said the last series was going to be the last, especially as everything seemed to be nicely wrapped up? Money talks, I guess.

Glad it's coming back though, cracking series.

There won't be that much money in it for them. Crook is in The Pirates of the Caribbean franchise and Jones has been in Marvel films.

It's a proper old fashioned labour of love.

But I have mixed feelings, too, as I love it but it was resolved beautifully.

My Missus met Toby Jones in the Film Theater a few months ago. Hes a patron of it now, pops in a lot when filming in Fram'. Lovely little show.

When the first series aired there was a bit in the EADT with some old bois and gals discussing the authenticity of the accents and they concluded neither were great but Crook's mumbly style of delivery makes his the more passable.

Yeah the fields are around the outskirts of Suffolk somewhere. Other location stuff is all Fram.

Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand.

The church and the area round it where the artifact was located is Aldham, just north of Hadleigh.

Good point, and obviously in the Christmas one-off one he was in London.

Like there's any other sensible view.

I just wanted to check before I go there with my detector.

I don't actually have one mind you. Yet.

As there are a couple of freaks who still use thread I thought it safest to make it clear.

I think there's only the historian and that old guy.

Oh, and Gav. That's it.

I wonder if metal detector sales have gone up since The Detectorists began.

You know, maybe another 2 have been sold across the country or something.
