Jim Rockford, anyone?

Any fans of the British TV show The Detectorists here?

This is Jim Rockford. At the tone leave your name and message. I’ll get back to you.

Love The Detectorists. It’s possibly the most ‘English’ show on TV. Always makes me long for a countryside pub. Guaranteed to make an exiled Brit feel homesick.

On the detective front, I think Morse is the best British one, Columbo the best American, and Holmes is the granddaddy of them all.

Binge watched seasons 1 & 2, have to wait for season 3 to come to YouTube. Nice escape from politics. Almost makes me want to buy a detector but I doubt I’ll find Saxon or Roman treasure here in SE Missouri.

No, but I have watched these British TV detective shows:

DCI Banks.. seasons 1-5
Grantchester 1-2
Endeavour 1-4
Inspector Lewis 1-7
Whitechapel 1-4
Scott & Bailey 1-5

I liked all of them.

I like Bergerac, The Sweeney, Shoestring, and both with Gene Hunt.
