Like or loathe them like some obsessive people do, this hoard, in all probability, may never have been found without their help. Just think of the many treasures that could still be lying out there awaiting discovery by enthusiastic and free-thinking people out enjoying their hobby. We all know about the bad eggs but let's celebrate the good guys helping us rediscover out past. Might just think about investing in one myself ;-)

The Detectorists was funny because it was about obsessives. I do hope that this news story doesn't encourage too many more people to go stomping around the countryside waving their detectors in front of them.
