    Great idea... There certainly is a great deal of humor that can be found in the metal detecting hobby....I have seen it depicted in cartoons over the years... usually in some beach scene... Looking forward to seeing your work. Cheers, RickO

    Nice idea — reminds me of the TV series the detectorists. Anyone familiar with that series?

    I watched it twice. I'm not sure it was meant to be a comedy, but it certainly was.

    I never saw the TV program (I watch very little TV)...Though it has been mentioned here before. I don't know if it is still on... but seems it would risk turning into something like that farce about the treasure of Oak Island. Cheers, RickO

    It’s not like Oak Island and is not a reality TV show. It’s on either Acorn or Britbox, but you should be able to get it on Amazon. It’s slow to start, but funny. They haven’t ruled out another season, but also do not have plans for one at this time.

    Often considered but always resisted using a graveyard gag. Gives some people the impression that detectorists are grave robbers.

    Actually ran across this metal detecting meme the other day web surfing.............

    "When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"

    :D Actually had a friend out West (AZ) that actually had the problem.... He did not dig a hole that deep, but thought the target was moving.... spent several minutes before he realized it was his own boots setting off the MD. Cheers, RickO

    Why do I think this will soon be reality.... I can easily imagine people pressing a button and filming their finds. Cheers, RickO

    @Dockwalliper ... Prophetic indeed. I have seen apps and equipment that tie the phone to home... even turn on the coffee pot... So, this will likely soon be reality. Cheers, RickO
