From the 2015 Christmas Special episode of Detectorists: Lance (Toby Jones) is being interviewed by a newspaper journalist about his genuinely rare and valuable find.
Journalist: Remind me... what was it you found?
Lance: A late-Saxon jewelled aestel.
Journalist: It has to be in language a ten-year-old could understand.
Lance: Pardon?
Journalist: Can't have too many big words. Er... Like Saxon.
Lance: Oh, er... Well, it's a type of... jewel...
Journalist: Gold?
Lance: Yeah.
Journalist: Diamonds?
Lance: Garnets and glass.
Journalist: I'll put diamonds.
[The journalist asks what Lance is going to do with the money from the aestel]
Lance: I haven't thought about it yet.
Journalist: Could we say holiday?
Lance: Um...
Journalist: Holiday of a lifetime.
Lance: Oh, OK.
Journalist: Where?
Lance: Er... Dorset.
Journalist: I'll put Australia.
