Started watching "Detectorists" the other day.
If you're into offbeat British humor, you might enjoy this series. Very low keyed but very well written and acted. It stars Mackenzie Crook and Toby Jones. The first season is on Hoopla. Also on Freevee.

Funny thing is, when we first saw Becky, I thought: wow she sure looks like a young Diana Ring.
Only to discover later she's Diana Rigg's daughter!
