Detectorists Cast – Who Are Their Real Life Partners?

The gentle British comedy revolves around the lives of two detectorists (not metal detectors) as they comb the fields of Danebury for hidden treasure.

Written by and starring Mackenzie Crook, the show took the UK by storm as we followed the every move of misfit friends Lance and Andy.

Whilst we’ve closely followed the lives of the pair, as Lance bagged himself a girlfriend and Andy’s relationship with Becky became more serious, we’re wondering if the Detectorists cast have been as lucky in love as their characters? Let’s find out…

Andy – Mackenzie Crook

Newly qualified archaeologist Andy had his long-term girlfriend Becky on the show – but what about the actor Mackenzie Crook IRL?

Crook is married to Lindsay a former advertising executive and the pair live in Muswell Hill, London. They tied the knot in April 2001 and have a son, Jude and a daughter, Scout.
