Cute interesting character based BBC film about a bunch of odd individuals who are connected by their hobby of "detectoring", or using metal detectors to search for treasure, usually pieces of scrap metal. Typical dry British humour and well defined characters.
It was released as a series of 6 half hour episodes and I found it quirky, but running a bit long at 3 hours.
Still, very entertaining.
