About

The BAFTA Award winner for best comedy returns with new misadventures for metal detecting hobbyists Andy (Mackenzie Crook, Pirates of the Caribbean) and Lance (Toby Jones, Witness for the Prosecution) as they search the Essex countryside for gold while dealing with their messy personal lives. To save up money for a place of their own, Andy and his wife, Becky (Rachael Stirling, The Bletchley Circle), have moved in with Becky's formidable mother (Diana Rigg, Game of Thrones), and Andy's new position as an archaeologist is not the dream job he thought it would be. Lance worries that having his daughter live with him is causing problems for his girlfriend. And to top it off, Andy and Lance may lose their favorite detecting field to the construction of a new solar farm. Beloved by fans and acclaimed by critics.
