I love as much as they trash James, when his mother returned everyone was quick to protect him
Same - I felt so sad for James in that episode and found it so heartwarming that they all came together for him.
@@lornarettig3215rather 8r4t44 84yt v club b66 r 5th v
Frankly, I found it hypocritical. The way they treat him is no better. At least his mom acts like she cares about him sometimes.
@@OneGaurdian but isn't it better to pretend to hate someone but actually care about them, than to pretend to care about someone but not care about them?
@@UncreativeHandle48It doesn't seem like Michelle is doing a lot of pretending. You can't do what she does to him and call it love.
"If you stopped invading us for 5 minutes we'd have alot less to wade through" 😂😂
Thats basically half the history text book of the commonwealth countries
“Unfortunately, James happens to be English” sends me every time😭
"Speaking of people who need to watch their back-" kills me. Every. Time.
Omg whenever she speaks I burst in to laughter.
"You wouldn't move over there James, I can't see past your massive closet" best line
I love the expression on Michelle's face when she says it. 🤣
Michelle's something else in all honesty just that little bundle of teen angst Miss Lee O'Donnell plays it so well Lol
I just laughed SO loud at that I completely forgot that line until I just heard it 😭😭😭
What does that mean?
@@sjnscnslsfshe’s making fun of him saying he’s gay- uno how LGBT ppl are in the closet and hv to “leave” to reveal their sexuality
she’s basically saying he’s hiding it but it’s so obvious that he’s gay- which he isn’t even 😭😭
The fact that James is actually Irish and was just raised in England 😂
The gay thing cancels out the english thing . Love it
Nearly
Aye
What’s surprising is that no one has complained about that.
@@georgemacpherson1992 no one did because it was actually like that then.
Pathetic comment
James: "Well I'm more of a man than Orla"
Orla: "I do not accept that!"
Orla is my favorite. She has zero filters, and her insults are straight to the point. Her Funniest line was "I know what I saw".
Autistic people are straight to the point 😅
Watch each episode again but just focus on Orla - there is a whole different show going on in the background - she's brilliant and it's brilliantly acted.
She is the Neil of the group
@Gee Cee eeeee I’m tryer w to ee I know I just got paid
@Gee Cee eeeee I’m tryer w to ee I know I just got paid
One thing I love about Derry girls is the fact that they wore rainbow pins after Claire came out
SO GLAD IM SEEING SOMEONE ELSE MENTION THIS
I like how Jenny and Aisling also wear them
I love how they say he is not attractive so he doesn’t have to worry even tho he is CLEARLY attractive 😂
He's English though...
@@Aethgeirso as long as he doesn't talk he should be fine.
I think it's funny because it is so true that teens sometimes have the weirdest tastes... looking back the guys that were considered unattractive in school were actually the attractive ones looking back but then the "hot" guys in school were actually super douchy in retrospect XDDD
Missed one of the best ones
James: "I can't get pregnant."
Grandpa Jo: "I wouldn't rule it out, son."
I love how James goes from fearing Michelle to fighting back (unsuccessfully)
"you're a lesbian Claire not desperate" 😂
"Why is he making that funny noise?"
"He’s English"
Peak insult
"If anything the gay thing sorta cancel the English thing" 😂🤣
I'm bi and my mum's English. Does the half gay still cancel out the half English?
@@HighMaintainanceMachine haha funny
I love how over the course of the show James becomes a Derry Girl, the way Orla leaps on him, when he comes back at the end of series 2.
“ a fella, a feminine fella, well fella all the same” 🤣🤣🤣
Effeminate
"We got the gist - we run out of spuds and everyone was ragin.'
Poor James, he needs to be protected at all costs... Mostly from Michelle! 😉
It's so funny how they bleep 'fuck' but don't bleep 'English prick' 🤣🤣🤣
True
It’s probably because in America fuck is a much worse word than prick 😂
Our carriage awaits mutha fuckas
@@eggplantglue7433 let's just cut out the middle and erase England from history
That's because it's just a well known fact about the English! 🙂
“why is he making that funny noise?” 🤣🤣🤣
My favourite James moment was his honest confession at the chippy! It blew me away lol
What about how he doesn't like it or he used mayonnaise to clean the windows
James is my favourite derry girls..he is absolutely a derry girl 😊
+Cine Girl he's a Derry boy
@@peterwilliamskelhorn6675 he himself said he was a derry girl, so he's a derry girl❤️
"It's pure hatred. I'll not dress it up."
The fact that this video is 8 minutes long … yeah it says a lot.
Poor James
"would you move over James I can't see past your massive closet" hahahaha and yes I'm gay. Just found that hilarious
I'm a gay, transgender man and this line is so perfect.
The censorship is the worst thing you could do for this show. Was so excited but I just cant.
It’s not censored, it’s just for TH-cam they do that
@@Mikeb1001 Yep I"m aware it's just youtube but it detracts from the impact of the insults at times.
Brilliant scripts ... brilliant cast. 😂
i spat out my drink at that closet line oh my godd it was hilarious 😂 how did i even forget that!
Watched all of them for first time last week. Such a pity there’s only 3 seasons.
I was a teen in the 90s, I remember a gf having some the clothes Erin wore.
Also the music, fantastic!
The whole cast were Brilliant.😃👍🤣
Personally I think it was right to end when it did. 3 seasons was enough. It will likely go down over time snore of the classic sitcoms imo. I hate it when shows really overstay their welcome and completely run out of ideas. The Inbetweeners comes to mind as a good recent example. Also they're similar kinds of shows.
@@Noobie2k7 yeah I agree the writer had a clear plan for 3 seasons from the beginning, that’s why it’s so good. She picked 3 major moments from the troubles in the 90s and built the show around that in the background, ending with the good Friday agreement. More seasons just wouldn’t have the same impact
How can I watch the third season? I live in nyc and Netflix doesn't have it here yet! Is it streaming on any other services?
@@leocervidae I know but only 6 episodes per season? that's what I don't understand
Best James insult: You call things wee that aren’t even all that small.
“I do not accept that”
Half of Michelle's dialogue has to be censored lol
Forgot when he washes the windows with mayonnaise.
“Pure Hatred” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I do not accept that, oh Orla!
It's a subtle commentary on prejudice: James is 100% Irish by birth, he's even Catholic, but because his mom had him in London, he's English, no different from the Invaders and Colonizers...
"Well Dicko?!"
"Fanny features"
"you are not a lad james"
Just started watching this, loving it 😂😂😂
7:35 is the cutest part of the show!
He’s a Derry Girl now
You're a lesbian claire not desperate 💀😹
😂😂😂
He’s not even English! At least not ethnically. Both his parents are Irish and he was raised by an Irish mother.
In the back of my mind, I had the exact same thought as this whenever they call him English.
It’s the accent. Accent is such an enormous part of someone’s identity and plays such a huge role in how they’re seen by others.
English in Ireland, Irish in England
"you are one"
God Northern Irish banter is soooo like Glasgows
ULSTER SCOTS
He deserves a gay love interest just to make things funnier
I figured the priest for that....
Why censor the language and remove the music. It takes away from the scenes. Who cares If channel 4 can't make money off the video
Because if it were uncensored, it wouldn't appear on the front page, or suggestions, on TH-cam. Which would make it a bad promotional video for the upcoming series
@@Iamridzal it's a bad promotional video as it is as they cut out half the jokes and the atmosphere of the show....
They do him so dirty 😂
Brilliant writing and cast!
Brilliant series…..
4:53 Oh my.
London Irish, wanted by neither side
How does Orla even have teeth left? 🍬 🍬
What's the big deal we all have one
I don't
You are one
I died 🤣🤣
I love everybody but James is such a great wee english boy.
Oh my gawd Dennis gave free pick a mix! What is the world coming to?
2:56 & 7:13 I love Orla! 😄💜
I wish it was uncensored.
He is a Derry Girl ❤
HAHAHA i just noticed that both Michelle and James noticed at the same time that Kathy never had the abortion 🤣
James needs male friends.
James needs friends full stop.
Today, James lives in Toronto, immigrating after university, and works as a child psychologist. He has a wife and two children and lives in a beautiful home near Mississauga.
Is this a reference to another show the guy is in or something?
@@bengilhooly3616 My mind went there too.
@@bengilhooly3616 if you had any imagination you could see that it is my fictional account of what happens to the character James on "Derry Girls."
@@JBiggsofWSNC No need to be a dick about it
Glad that James got to kiss Erin and have a good story for once. I know it’s exaggerated for comedic effect but I don’t miss the mean-spirited comedy of the 80s and 90s and I prefer when the show is more warm-hearted.
Wtf you on about.
@@bengissing555 your needlessly aggressive response?
@@lornarettig3215 your making perfect sense????
@@bengissing555 And ‚your‘ not. Look, you can‘t spell, you‘ve no idea what‘s going on - why not just go to a comment thread that‘s a better fit for you.
They pick on James because he's one of the only characters who can see through all their bullshit. (Gerry fulfills the same role for the adults.) If they were nice to him all the time, scenes where they drop the mask for a moment wouldn't work. Take the one where James announces his departure. It's Michelle - the worst bully among them - who pleads with him not to leave. For the briefest moment she drops the posh, mean girl persona and we see her for who she actually is: lonely, insecure, vulnerable.
That dark-haired girl looks like George Cole, who played Arthur Daly in the 1980s TV show 'Minder'. Poor girl.
"Well I can't tell my rebellions from my risings." As a student of Irish history I have one thing to say.
"O come tell me Sean O'Farrell,
Tell me why you hurry so?"
"Hush ma bouchal, hush and listen"
And his cheeks were all aglow
"I bear orders from the Capt'n
Get you ready quick and soon
For the pikes must be together
By the rising of the moon"
The Rising of the Moon 👍🏻 Used to sing that one in the Irish pubs here and there.
i didn’t read the james part in the title and just assumed it was all the best insults in derry girls… til the end i didn’t question why they were all thrown at james
"You're a lesbian Claire, not desperate"
Poor James....this man wants to serve God and the priest guy says, "Don't be such a Dick James".
Aaa yes, my comfort show is the best 🤍
Love love derry. Girls best show ever
James is lovely ❤️
"I'm sorry James, but Jenny's people are just better than English people"
Great programme
Damn bleeps
With this, and after Father Ted, am even more proud to be a Paddie!
Is that a gay Paddy?
@ Ní hea, ar chor ar bith!
Odd that the British Goverment owned Channel four commissioned them both , RTE don't seem too interested in furthering your national self-esteem . At 160 euro's a year Mrs Browns boys seems a poor return
@@5888max Your edginess aside, it’s not odd at all. Britain is a much bigger market and Lisa McGee already had contacts there. They also sold the concept to Netflix for the same reason.
@@TheLastAngryMan01 I see it's a bigger market ,that must be why they are always making comedies comedies set in Luxembourg written by and starring Luxembourger's that the Luxembourg national broadcaster declines to fund in favour of having a ridiculous '' campus'' and spending it's money on buying program's from the UK and America
Orla is the best.
Yes she was
I am American and got turned on to Channel 4 from Taskmaster and 8 Out of 10 Cats does Countdown. I can’t understand most of this. Lol
Subtitles lol
Stupid
lol
Always watch it with subtitles
Love this show! My fav is Claire and orla
"His a fella. A feminist fella, but a fella all the same."
Effeminate*
She said feminine
@@Dearest_Nidesyou're right, that's what she said, "Effeminate fella." ☺🤦♀️Thanks Jack for the correction!👍🏽
Put it on raw or not at all
He was so beautiful though
Why is this being beeped?
You really don't need to bleep the swear words
The bleeping ruined this clip imo
And James wanted to stay in Derry because...
Seriously, I think he was right, it was Stockholm syndrome. I think I can count the legitimately nice moments between him and another character on one hand. Why I didn't see the threat of him leaving as particularly sad, or him deciding to stay as particularly happy
I thought it was just me. I know its comedic to watch but if you think about being in his shoes in real life, it's not exactly fun to be treated this way (even if the insults are half-hearted.)
Maybe I'm.judt sensitive, though, idk.
@@keiko4043 perhaps it's just the type of comedy. Bit mean spirited. Gunna have to assume they had some fun off screen
It’s funny though, because even though they teased him he was always hanging out with them, getting into trouble with them. The scene where he took Erin to the prom, or when the Ukrainians came Derry and they didn’t want him to hook up with Katya. Or the funeral debacle and obsessing over the cool teacher with them. Sure there are moments where they tease him for being English or feminine, but I think at the end of the day they care a lot about him and don’t really mean it. That’s why the group is always together doing things. ( also michelle is his cousin, so it makes sense why she does the majority of the insults, it’s like me and my cousin 😁)
Agreed
@@sophiefell9748 That's only bc there's no one else for him to hang out with. Be honest, they treated him like crap for a laugh and they didn't deserve him, I get it's for jokes in the show but in reality, this is just abusive
Nice
They bully him so much you wonder why he stayed friends with them. When he said he has Stockholm syndrome I totally agree. What's really jarring is how uneven the show is. One minute they love him and next they are slagging him off. They almost cried when he was going to leave Derry and in series 3 they think he is dying after the van hits him, yet later on they still treat him like shit.
They all give each other crap. Not just James. It’s just funnier when they do it to James.
Not excusing the way they behave towards James, or the frankly offensive things they say to/ about him, but in essence they treat him the way you'd treat a younger sibling? (least that's kinda how it worked in Belfast growing up )
@@ashbunny2645 yeah I think all the insults comes from a place of love. I mean they never outcast him, they always included him in their adventures.
Completely agree with you
@@Mrsamj1989 They are nice to each other as well tho, they are rarely nice to James and he gets the worst of the insults and is basically bullied for the entire show
This shows weird made me fancy a Lass in a school uniform, I know she's older like but that Michelle is awesome .....Those dark raven curly locks too!
No it's a shame this is finishing one of the better comedies put out by channel 4 by far!!
I can only understand James.. not a word of the NI accent of the others... 😁
Why do they pick on him so much?
Mainly because he’s English
@@PurpleSirens why do they hate the English?
@@Random_Wierdo. Because of the conflict back then I guess, which is in the background throughout the entire show. Hating on James is meant to be a comical aspect tho
@@PurpleSirens I love James, but sometimes he is way to cringy when he is trying to make guy friends
@@Random_Wierdo. Well he is english.
Michelle looks like mutch to Lisa Mcgee
Your a lesbian Claire, your not desperate...😂
Is it true tho? About irish people’s view of english ppl? Lol
You can’t say British people lol
That would include welsh & Scotts which they only direct their insults at the English..
@@cocomilk4846 ah okok, thanks for correcting. I always confuse the 2 😅
Yes, the Irish really are that tedious about the English.
The thing is James is actually Irish. His mum and dad (whoever he is) are both Irish. Not everything born in a stable is a horse.
Jeez, that discussion again! Nationality and ethnicity are not god given and cut in stone, they are constructs and therefore construable. If you say that James is irish, you argue from the principle of Jus sanguini (right of blood) which claims that nationality is dependend on the nationality of the parents. But Ireland was following the Jus soli (right of soil) until the end of 2004, which proclaimed that everyone born on irish soil was of irish nationality. When they claim in the show that James is english, it's on the principle of Jus soli (he was born and raised in England). It's a matter of interpretation. So you can claim that James is irish, but that doesn't make it an universal fact, it's still up to interpretation.
Why can't James stand up for himself? Does he really want to spend his life letting others push him around?
Well, it wouldn't be sitcom if we didn't have our sweet but measles little punchbag though would it?
@@juliall255 All the men are harassed by females in this show. An alpha James in a girls' high school would be a different type of programme that even Channel 4 would shy away from showing.
@@gentblue An alpha James in an all girl's school would still turn out the same way tbh. Except even more friendless
Ain't liking the censorship. A bit gutless on the part of C4, I thought.
Her people are just better than the English people!
I've never seen this show before but it please me I find it amusing, even if it is Irish.
What’s with the beeps I’m fucking 64
