By Detectorists has been renewed for a second series by BBC Four.
The Mackenzie Crook and Toby Jones sitcom will return next year, following high viewing figures for a comedy on the channel.
The series follows two friends and metal detecting enthusiasts Andy (Crook) and Lance (Jones), as they dream of finding a priceless Saxon hoard.
Series one also starred Rachael Stirling, Aimee-Ffion Edwards and Lucy Benjamin.
Writer and director Crook said: "I couldn't be happier with how Detectorists has gone down and the response it has got from audiences. The opportunity to meet these characters again and tell some more of their stories is very exciting."
BBC Four editor Cassian Harrison said: "I'm so pleased that we're going to be able to bring the Detectorists back - it was a perfect slice of BBC Four comedy, beautifully written and observed, wry and movingly performed, with real depth to its entrancing world."
What to Read Next
Former Office star Crook recently told Digital Spy that he was keen to write another series of Detectorists.
The first series will be released on DVD on November 10.
