  • Lisa McGee mined her own experiences to create a comedy, set against the backdrop of the Troubles in 1990s Derry, of unique authenticity and warmth that has struck a real chord with the public. After only one season McGee’s wonderful characters have already achieved an iconic status in the world of TV comedy. Here McGee and cast members Nicola Coughlan (Clare), Saoirse-Monica Jackson (Erin), Dylan Llewellyn (James), Louisa Harland (Orla) and Siobhan McSweeney (Sister Michael) talk about the comic genius of Derry Girls.

    Derry Girls is great, such an underrated series. The second series' ending was genuinely brilliant.

    From SINGAPORE.. an instantaneously admirable and addictive series. Saoirse-Monica Jackson at a crossroad in life's journey , probably all the cast and writer too.

    I discovered this show a year ago but it wasn't until 2 weeks ago that I've gotten around to watching it. This show is phenomenal! As a child who grew up in the 90s and educated at a co-ed catholic school, I'm so happy to watch a show that brought back happy memories. I hope there will be more seasons to come. Cheers from the Philippines. :)

      As with most British film, amazing stories and acting with atrocious cinematography and editing. There's really no excuse for it nowadays with the accessibility of digital editing. This isn't 1982 when quality editing and sfx cost millions of dollars. My gaming streams look nicer than this.
