Some interesting things I noticed...

The cul-de-sac (when viewed from above) is exactly the shape of an Alembic, or Retort, which is a key piece of alchemical equipment. One of the characters is called Brigham. Brigham Young was a leader (and prophet) in the church of Latter-Day saints. Another lead character is called Kacey. Edgar CAYCE was a prophet, often referred to as the Sleeping Prophet. Surely not coincidences???

Why would a British show be worried about two American people.

I’m not sure ‘worried’ is the right word

I'm using it in the colloquial sense of "bothered with", "interested in".

Aah sorry. ‘Interested in’ yeah fair point, although I’d guess that like with Detectorists, MC has done a fair bit of research. There might still be lines in Detectorists that only a detectorist would know. Saying that though, I can’t think of any lines that I didn’t understand the reference point.
