It was very sweet and very funny.
We must all want them both to dig a little bit further on and a little bit deeper.
The end of the last series was so emotional to me.

Oh no. I didn't realise this was back on. I'll have to get it on catchup.

Really do enjoy this, and the music’s beautiful. I hadn’t heard the song about the magpies either, apart from the rhyme taking you up to 7 of them. ☺️

...my garden is on the site of the village rubbish tip and I often find bits of broken pottery and wonder about the people who owned it/treasured it.

I've got a lot of Unthanks cd's but have to admit to finding them a bit dreary, so I'm going to look that one up [it was beautiful]. It does seem that he's been employed to 'not' find anything on that building site, doesn't it. I couldn't believe half an hour had gone by either. I gave my SIL/DD a dvd of series one but I don't think they ever bothered to watch it sad.

So glad it's back. Never known half an hour go so quickly with this gentle comedy(?) and I agree the about the ending .. it was worthy of an 'end of series' scenario. I hadn't heard the song about the magpies but it was spine tingling. Thinking back over series 1 and 2 there have been hints that Church Farm hides a huge horde ... I sort of hope so, just so the boys get their reward for all their hard work, but that will mean no series 4 sad

Anyone watching the new series? I only recently realised why Diana Rigg was in it; her daughter plays Mackenzie Crookes wife. The end of episode one, with the singing etc sent shivers down my spine; it was magical.
