New BBC comedy drama about metal detecting

[DrDuck]

Here is a somewhat tongue in cheek review of a new BBC comedy/drama about metal detecting.

Reviewer is the acerbic right wing commentator and bane of greens James Delingpole, who it turns out is a detectorist himself.

Pretty sure we wont see this on free to air in OZ, but it should be available around the interwebs.

I have looked at the previews for these episodes and they are quite amusing. I would like to view a full episode, but not sure how to or where to find it.
When I go to the BBC site, I get a message that BBC iPlayer programmes can only be viewed in the UK.
Can anyone offer advice on how to go about viewing these shows?
Thanks.

Loamer, how do we see these episodes you are talking about -pretty plse.

 

[loamer]

you need to get onto a torrent download site (pirate bay etc). then search the title 'detectorists'. the ones I get are in HD - excellent quality. the language can be colourful at times. very black humour, but some funny moments.

just a quick edit. downloading 'utorent' is free and legal. downloading torrents from certain providers, eg PB may be illegal, your ISP may notify you its illegal etc etc.

I've seen all 4 episodes. I like it. Quirky British humour. As loamer said. Torrent files to download it. Use Pirate bay or Kickass torrent site to search the files and utorrent to download.

Ramjet - they have nailed it!! Very funny how 'Simon and Garfunkel' - 'the rogue detectorists knobs' are wearing cams!!!!

 

[Ramjet]

Chuckle. Yes loamer. Spoiler alert!! I loved old mate going where he shouldn't have and getting what he deserved. The opening scene in episode 4 cracked me up. They are SO serious about their hobby and club.

I've just sat at the computer & watched all 4 episodes, quite funny in a quirky way.
