Not a lot of use to me here,

But reminding me to look out for it!!

Series 1 is on iPlayer.

I've not been able to see Series 3 here in the US, so I broke down and bought the complete DVD set.

All three series plus bonus'!

Oh, I'm so happy right now.

Anyone know if it's on Netflix?

Fairly sure it was on Netflix before but it isn't at the moment

I think you can see it via the BBC iplayer service but it looks like you have to do something like this, George:

How can I watch BBC iPlayer for free in Australia?
To stream BBC iPlayer in Australia, you only need to follow these easy steps:
Purchase a VPN with servers in the UK. ...
Download the VPN and install it on your device.
Select a UK server from the VPN's list of available servers and connect.
Go to BBC iPlayer and pick a show to watch.

Thanks, Dave! Don't think I'll be going down that route, though. As soon as I saw the word "purchase" it put me off - especially as Mrs Bealman is already paying for Netflix.

Thanks all the same though!

George - All 3 series are available (in the US at least) on Amazon Prime if you subscribe to that service.

I just love the gentle pace and subtle humor of Detectorists. It just wouldn't work on TV here at all!!!!

Thanks, Mike. I'll keep that in mind for when they finally let me out of the ~~torture chamber~~ hospital

I used tunnel Bear 🐻 in France and it is free, with limits but you can boost your allocation by tweeting about them and suchlike.
Works really well.

On my mind again as I'm soon to begin my layout construction.

I'm going to attempt to kit-bash these signal boxes to try to replicate Lance's apartment.

I might ruin everything, but it's worth a shot.

If you download the Opera browser which is free it has built in VPN :-)
