“I think it’s safe to say we all just lost a bit of respect for you Clare”.
Argh! I came onto the comments section to specifically quote that bit! Best line in the series, IMHO.
Funniest line ever
I think its safe to say we all just lost a bit of respect for ya there Clare*
Clair *
Dankest memes Dank the English spelling is actually*
"Listening backstage to the singing in this talent show makes me realise how talented the professionals who recorded those songs were" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's got to be my favourite line of the whole series! 😂
@@SuperKinsy Mine too. I almost fell of my chair laughing.
bag ofhammers Absolutely brutal! 🤣🤣🤣
Does anybody have a jacket? I'm freezing here underneath all that SHADE
@@lachlankeddie7 I'm from America and african American and this show is the best i love Ireland
So the “very best of sister Michael” seems to be every scene in which Sr. Michael appears because every scene with her is the very best scene
So True, Joe...
The one facet of the show that was consistently funny throughout.
Lol. True though 🤣
"You terrify me."
Absolutely Sister Michael,more,more!
Sister Michael needs a spin off show all of her own.
Yea she does
Definitely
She would have been perfect on Father Ted...
Orla and Michelle aswell.
@@philiphalpenny9761 Yea she would, she would have kept them on their toes alright...
Just noticed that when the priest walks into the room, Clare is the only one who doesn't check him out. Subtle clue. Very clever.
What is she doing with her face though
Arthur Morgan Sleep Deprivation and caffeine.
@@ayahiraya stop
It's a lovely touch in a really great show full of them, but I think they'd have to be pretty stupid to have her check out dudes in episode 2 and then have to go "Oh, she wasn't a lesbian three episodes ago, this is her new story arc"
She's a sister so she's supposed to be chaste, like the priest.
"You can't let this happen sister"
" I know but im bored now so I think I will"
I think the same reason she ignored Jenny.
😂😂😂😂
sister michael possibly ENTP hahahha
I think I loved her so much watching the show because she is basically me. Just with celibacy lol
The second series, they’re sneaking off to Belfast to see Take That and Sister Michael gets on the bus. She’s reading The Exorcist and laughs.
Weird arse sis 😂😂😂
That was brilliant
That was a hoot.
The second season-Sister Michael was truly great! Can't get over episode one and how she treats the kids and the pastor... HILARIOUS
That scene and the one where she is with uncle Colm at the wake are pure gold
I love Sister Michael's rare soft moments like when she sees the gang went ahead with publishing the story she banned and does nothing to stop it. You can see she's secretly proud of them😊
@Daniel Marston Mm, i think it was a bit of both. I think she's proud of them here too when they take that step to have the story told
And when she actually smiled at orla and the gang at the talent show. Made my heart burst
She's the mcgonagall to the Derry girls's mauraders
I think she also smiled when they went into the stage with Orla
When the girls (and boy) are dancing at the end, loved the look of pride and admiration (?) on her face.
"There were serious concerns for his safety, because well unfortunately James happens to be English."
😂😂😂
I laughed so hard when she said that line when I was watching Season 1, so hard and long that I had to pause the show until I could stop laughing. I don't know why I thought it was so funny, but, it must have been a lot of things, mostly the Sister's delivery of the line and the look on the guy's face. I still giggle when I see that scene.
That is my favourite moment in the whole show. It is so funny.
Subtle euphemism. Simultaneously true, and... insinuation.
@@RobMacKendrick it isn't a euphemism.
"Sadly I will be unable to go - as I despise the French..."
Apart from the French, who doesn't? One of the few things that unites everyone across Europe.
@@cobbler9113 This one of my favorites!
@@cobbler9113 Well, we hate everyone also, so I guess it's fair :^P
@@cobbler9113 As a French guy, I can tell you I also despise the French.
😂😂😂
My favorite Sister Michael moment is in the second series when she's at the wake and she's been cornered by Uncle Colm and sitting there going "Am I dead? Is this *my* wake? Am I in hell?"
Still manages to listen to Colm's entire story and then finds it funny after he finishes. LOL
Yessss! Just brilliant that scene!
That had me rolling with tears in my eyes
Mine is when she said that yes there are several atrocities happened at this place and we can add your play to that list 😅😅
Her disgusted facial expressions when the other woman reads through the list of banned love-related songs hahahaha
😂😂😂😂
Yet I still had the feeling she was only banning all those love songs so Jenny and her friends couldn't ruin them for her. 😂
Got the impression that Sister Michael relates to the girls because she was like them when she was younger. She seems to admire their friendship towards the end.
Especially when shes watching them all do step aerobics together!
That's the way it usually goes. My Mom always told me I couldn't go to spend the night at a friend's house or go to a party or go to a dance when I was in junior high , and I asked her why and she said, because I said so, so I always snapped back, you must have done the same thing you think I'm going to do and that's why you won't let me, and sometimes she'd hit me for sassing back.
She recognises mettle when she sees it. In the end, that's what she wants to see in her students. I was a high school teacher; I can relate. You want to see a little f-you. This ain't grade school.
But she became a nun I can’t see Erin and defiantly not michelle becoming nuns
@@kkandsims4612 Michelle as a nun would require a Saul on the Road to Damascus calling, for sure
"So I think the only thing we can do now is" "Pray for her!" "No. Shh. What use would that do?"
I laughed so hard I literally fell out of my chair
Sweet suffering Jehovah 😁😁well said lol
No sure*
"no. Shur (Irish saying), what use would that do?"
I love Aisling's reaction
"What age are you now Orlagh?" "Fifteen." "Yeah... You might want to think about wising up."
That's 2/3rds of the elderly Catholics in the whole of Ireland for you lol
Gerard Collins You mean the Kerry crowd?
@@nobrainerneeded4229 say again?
@Swamp Yankee Just that a lot of elderly Irish Catholics are very superstitious in the way that Orla was.
Gerard Collins you know the two Healy-Rays who stated that climate change ain’t real as it is only gods will.
“Is he alright?”
“I wouldn’t say so, no. He’s a priest, like”
{\[...His hair...] Sister Michael mutters: OH FECK!
😂😂😂😂
LOL
"...feckin' weirdo..."
"Please, pleeease, do not come crying to me." - Me talking to my own class haha
I bet the Girls are even worse :)
Me too 😂
😂😂😂😂
Yes, it is what weaklings perhaps need more than a load of therapy at times.
Me at my job 🤣
“She is away, educating the heathen inhabitants of a Savage place“
- “She’s taking a teaching position in Belfast, sister... “
-“Precisely.”
🤣
Savage sister❤
What I love most about the writing of her character is that she never lets her students or colleagues forget that she has a life, Hobbies and interests outside her job. Those oblique references to her outside life are just golden; she's a brilliant example of setting firm boundaries on your time and energy.
"i can't miss judo" or "hurry it along, rawhide is going to be on in 15 minutes"
It's nice that she's not bound to her religious beliefs like most real life Catholics and Christians are.
What I also love about her character is that regardless of how strict she might be most of the time, she’s not beyond siding with her students.
@@humps678this is a common misconception 🤓 how serious people are about it varies everywhere. Even basic “rules” are different in each country. What’s unacceptable in, say, Italy might be perfectly fine in Bolivia - , Día de las Ñatitas is a great example. In other countries it would be seen as worshipping false idols, in Bolivia, they’re completely compatible practices 🥰
I’m in Scotland and the vast majority of people who identify as Catholic only go to church on these occasions; baptisms, first communions, confirmations, weddings, funerals, Easter and if you’re really putting in the effort, midnight mass for Christmas 😂🤦🏼♀️ Notice that most of those events also involve a party/gathering with food and alcohol 😜😂
I come from a big Catholic family and went to Catholic schools my whole life - I only know one person whose family were extremely devout and they were considered super old fashioned/a bit too enthusiastic 😂 Most people aren’t devout whatsoever.
Our favourite priest when I was little used to enjoy a drink, and would stand outside chatting after mass with a cigarette hanging out the side of his mouth 😂👏🏻 My mum once asked him if he was excited for his upcoming holiday with a few of the other priests. It was being organised by a few of the older ladies who helped out at the church. He (lightheartedly) complained to her he was dreading it 😂 He and the other priests wanted a _break_ so the plan was to go abroad, enjoy the sights, relax with a nice glass of wine etc. Instead, they’d been booked on a guided walking tour of all the local cathedrals, and an academic lecture on the gospels 😂😂 If you’re not aware, Catholics don’t believe in the rapture (as in, the notion that people will be sucked up into the sky and the “unworthy” are left behind on earth lol) - he said something along the lines of “if we aren’t able to cancel that lecture, I hope to god the Protestants are right and I’m raptured up before it gets going” 😂😂😂😂😂
"Yeah, apparently there was a smirk as well. I mean I'm not sure what Our Lady of the Sorrows has to be smirking about, but that's by the way." LMAO! I love Sr Michael.
@Molly Sutton 2:31
She says "that's by the bye" meaning it's not the most important part of the conversation.
HAHAAHAHAH being a catholic can be so funny 😂
Carl-Hein Jeneke It’s “...but that’s by the by”
"Killing nuns now is it?"
You wait until your mother hears about this...
😂😂😂😂😂
Omg im legit crying. The first episode was THE SHIT. never laughed so much in my life
@@carlalazajane5959 she made quite the face.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 I died
Sister Michael is the Ron Swanson of Derry Girls
omg true!!!
Not sure if she’d win a burger cook off
@@tonymontana1179 she wouldn't care about a fecking burger cook-off
For some reason, I can picture her and Ron getting along.
She also reminds me of Dina from Superstore
Sister Michael is so iconic, in that she always says what's on her mind, and she doesn't seem to care if she offends anyone, which just makes her all the more hilarious. Her crowning episode is when she clearly doesn't believe the gang's story of the "dead dog" for one moment, and rolls her eyes about it the whole time!
She's a made up character
+William Gaule I know, but I still love the character!
"I despise the French" is her best moment imo.
What? Not based on a real Sister?
Reminds me of the Nuns that were at my school 😂😂
I challenge anyone to roll their eyes as eloquently as Sister Michael does.
It's the first thing they taught nuns.
Maaaaaybe Tina Fey in 30 Rock, but even then....
Ikr
Sister Michael’s eye roll and muttering “Christ” when the priest walks in always makes me fall apart laughing 😂
“Every year I sit back stage listening to the singers and it really makes me realise how talented...the professionals who originally recorded these tracks were” LMFAOOOOOO
Almost the dictionary definition of throwing shade.
Unfortunately James happens to be English.
As an Englishman I find this show is hilarious.
Priceless
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This show has educated me on the riff between Brits and Irish😂
The funny thing is, so many of us have English relatives. Feckin traitors.
'if anyone is feeling anxious and wants to have a little chat, Please PLEASE do not come crying to me!'
(dramatic pause) did you actually want me to do the dramatic pause?
interesting
Sister Michael throwing all kinds of shade 😂😂
Niamh Speirs
''So there's only one thing we can do?
''Pray?''
''No, what use would that do?''
*DEAD* :D
Ms14787 that line was killer!
"I know but I'm bored now, so it looks like I probably will. Good luck all"
Derry Girls... brilliantly written comedy, preternaturally skilled acting, poignantly pitched soul bursting drama (Sister Michael, alone, toasting the ceasefire, pure gorgeousness), and tonight, spot on socially/emotionally/hysterically informed performance art.
"Lovely job so far Seamus but y'know, keep it moving. Rawhide's on in 15 minutes." I cackled!
“I know.... Well, I’m bored now, so it looks like I probably will.” I’ve seen comments saying Orla is the way Luna Lovegood should have been played. Well, this is the kind of mood I always imagine from Snape.
Sister Michael is a muggle version of McGonagall. Though she'd be Hufflepuff if she was at Hogwarts.
Hate the movie Luna. Blegh.
Her reading The Exorcist and laughing, is a gem of a scene !!
8:15 Erin: Isn't that Right Sister Micheal?
Sister: You Terrify Me
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I had forgotten just how brilliant “Derry Girls” was. The acting is excellent, and the music was all from the era it was set in. I remember it all, wonderful memories.
"Sadly I am unable to come on this one, as I despise the French." Lmao, I love this show and all the characters! It makes me wish that I was Irish and not Danish :) I can't want for season 2.
MissUmami84 goodag, hvordan går det?
@@winstonchurchill137 Det går godt, tak :) How are you?
MissUmami84 I can only speak very broken Danish so I apologize ( my farmor was Danish) but I’m good, thanks:-)
@@winstonchurchill137 It's okay, no need to apologize. My English isn't perfect either ;-) Are you Irish?
MissUmami84 no, I’m actually British but my farmor moved to England in the early 60’s.
Every character is awesome in this series. I love how Sister Michael is an authority figure but encourages the students to push back and stand up for them selves (ie. when they pass out the “lesbian” paper or how she’s disappointed when Jenny is the only girl in class).
We love rebels if people don’t have any capacity to rebel it’s a bit of a concern
Or when she tells Jenny that it’s okay to be a “rebel” sometimes. You could see how much she sympathises with her and wants nothing more than for her students to not be cocooned.
"Ah killing nuns now are ye?"
"I didn't daddy!"
"Wait until ya mother hears about this"
She has world class eyes rolls. Just the funniest lady on television.
I loved it when she rolled her eyes at the girls drooling over the priest. 😂
“Even if she you know dies....the show must go on ain’t that right Sister Michael!?”
*Whispers* “You terrify me....”
Absolute best line ever!!! I fucking love it so much😹😹😹😹
Molly Sutton it was the scene in the library when Erin was made editor of the school magazine
My favorite part in that scene is when Erin calls Jenny Rupert Murdoch
I use “You terrify me” in exactly that tone on a daily basis 🤣
"Oh killin' nuns now is it?" 🤣
I know that this video is about Sister Michael, but Clare's father has the best quote. 🤣
I figured out Sister Michael during Orla's talent show when all the rest of the gang jumped on stage to support her after they started laughing. They panned on her face quickly and she was just staring and her top lip lifted a bit. It was a subtle movement but it meant something .As much as the girls drive her nuts, she admires true friendship and secretly wishes she had that growing up ...it's also why she secretly cannot stand Jenny . There is a lot more to her but you have to watch the show multiple times to catch it.
There is not a character in this show that I don't like, but I think Sister Michael might be my favourite. Is it usual for nuns to dislike priests? I also have a soft spot for the woman in the chip shop - I don't think I would tell her if the chips were overcooked though.
A J yes, kinda. the nuns usually dislike priest who do not respect the nuns or women in general. There is a bit of an issue in the Catholic Church with sex discrimination and when priest, a group of people who have recently brought quite a bit of shame to the church, pull rank on nuns a group of people who are sometimes better equipped to lead but can not because “only men can be priest” then yes nuns dislike those priest.
Thanks, she certainly leave him in no doubt of what she thinks of him. I think it might be a while before there are women Priests!
Morgan Olfursson
Thanks!
A J Women cannot be priests. It's a matter of Catholic truth, not feminism. Just saying. I'm a woman, just in case you call me sexist. Nowadays, the priests are encouraged to appreciate what the women do to avoid the 'battle of the sexes' kind of thing.
There was always a weird power struggle going on when the priest would enter the nuns realm of the parochial school. They either worshipped them or silently despised them. It was always kinda tense feeling. I did see a priest and the principal have a very heated exchange on the altar at confirmation practice. He always thought he was hot shit and the nun was egomaniacal. A recipe for comical drama of any of us had the sense to fully be aware of what was going on and enjoy it.
"Some sort of a wok, at the very least." Omg, I'm dying 😭
*There's really only one thing you need to know. We're the goodies*
lol
El Poncho Zoido Giaccometti by jaysus she is
"Did I not banned this one?"
[Making weird faces when she heard the titles and Joyce took the high pitch]
"Put on the list"
"Is he alright?" "I wouldn't say so- no. He's a priest like." Killer one liner.
Ahhh.... Sister Michael *cue dramatic pause* is a woman after my own heart. Derry Girls is really and truly a brilliant show. US writers could definitely take a few lessons from their Irish counterparts.
Agreed. When you see popular US comedies with the laughter track removed you realise how unfunny the writing was.
@@tweetiepie551 so true! I'm Welsh, and the American humour just isn't funny very often to me. It's different to our British humour, I find it's very forced and kinda like oh haha u have to laugh now at this part. It's just not naturally flowing funny. Far too forced, but I know the Americans don't understand our honour and most importantly sarcasm either
Americans may not understand our Honour Alex but , surely , they understand our humour.....:)
@@alexcarlson4344 Well as an American who watches a lot of UK comedies, I think I understand the humor and sarcasm just fine thanks. I feel I have to stick up for American shows but it's hard lol. I wouldn't say American or UK humor is better or worse but there is just a large number of awful American sitcoms.
If I had to guess it might be due to Hollywood having so much more money and actors to throw at any show. Americans are also generally more conservative with what we tolerate on TV so to market to that, studios play it safe with bland, unoffensive shows. Also we don't have publicly funded arts like the BBC so everything here is based around what can produce the most money. Experimentation is not profitable.
Obviously there are tons of great American comedies but they're just more scarce. The UK pumps out a lot of quality. Unfortunately, it seems like you guys have a pool of like 20 actors to choose from for any given show so we have to wait 3 years between every season of 8 episodes.
Humour requires a minimum of intelligence.
So I don't think their quite there yet
Brings back memories of the nuns at my old Catholic High School. Those ladies were intelligent, wise, witty but at the same time tough as steel.
I love that Sister Michael decided to let the group distribute their paper and not fight it. It’s like she secretly respects them for doing so.
"Oh killing nuns now, is it?"
Why does that line kill me everytime?
You a nun?
You're a nun?
I didn't, daddy!
@@hankolio234 You just wait till you mother hears about this!
Makes it sound like she's killed before and she's moved on to nuns
"Got Judo on Friday, I don't like to miss it"..
My favorite S2 Sr. Michael quote is her telling Jenny she will go far, but she won't be well liked XD so true
0:53 Does Sr Michael have a framed photo of a topless David Hasselhoff on her desk??
I think so. She's a naughty nun.
DEAD :D
It’s Daniel O’Donnell, an Irish singer
LMAO good catch!
@@ProudKansan08 She can look at the menu. She just can't order lmao
I love Sister Michael. She's a hoot, a complete scene-stealer!
This whole cast is perfect.
I mistakenly played Derry Girls on Netflix but my god...if every mistake was as fruitful. It is undoubtably one of the best shows and being American, I can never get enough of that accent.
6:38 "Fer feck's sake..." 😁😂😂
9:43 "Feckin' weirdo" 🤣🤣🤣
Love the flag
Now I know how to spell it.😂
Her face of shock that she didn't ban that song as well...
Perfect. Now, that's acting.
The picture of David Hasselhoff on her desk is a nice touch
Claire is the only one of the whole gang who doesn't seems to be at all mesmerized by Peter's entrance... A kinda of foreshadowing as to her sexual orientation...
Not to mention that she had like twenty tins of caffeinated drinks. Lol
"That's because I can't get anything past RUPERT MURDOCH ovar there!" - Erin. I cannot stop laughing when she says it with her gestures and blinking.
I live for sister Michael's sassy facial expressions.She is such a mood.
"Sister... did you hear me?"
"Do you know what Jenny? I don't think I did."
Ha ha! Love Sister Michael's sly apathy there. Almost as if she spots Jenny's barely concealed smirk.
This woman is brilliant. Fantastic acting.
“You terrify me”
I love her
I'm Italian and I didn't know this sitcom. Yesterday i discovered this show, and i love It !!! Super funny and brilliant.
Why is this character not more popular?! I LOVE her. "I think it's safe to say we all just lost a bit of respect for you, Claire" had me rolling with laughter. 😂😂 Need more of her - she's a MOOD.
Season 2: Sister Michael trapped into listening to Colm's long story, and at the story's end, the way she subtly lit up and smiled.... that there is excellent delivery.
“Jenny, you will go far in life. But you will not be well-liked.”
" you terrify me". OMG laughed out loud and woke the dog. (3am)
That was the line that made me laugh most.
The sarcasm of Sister George Michael can not be understated. She is the best of the best with zingers that are non stop. She is a legend.
Early 90s, agressive humor, Catholic
*ME*
Irish humour.
Not you.
@@Ciaradexy actually, that is me. "Ciara"
Nah this is Irish humour. Even 2t years later we all have the same personality just we aren't a religious people anymore
"Ciara", if that is your real name lmao
When you realise how dangerous a lot of the things the Derry Girls did that were presented as comedy! E.g when Clare comes out, when Clare wears the UK flag, James being English, when the family find that guy in the car, etc.
Sort of unrealistic for that time and place, most of them. The wanted IRA man hiding in the car is the kind of thing that might have happened but the consequences of being caught ferrying him over the border would have been severe.
Not really...you obviously don't live in Ireland.
A lot of Irish humour from back then would be censored TODAY, example:

"ya know, every year I sit backstage listening to the singers and it really makes me realize just how talented..... the professionals who originally recorded these tracks were"
- Top 10 sickest burns in history
the trip will be dramatic pause ...... France ..... sadly I will be unable to go on this one as I despise the French. such a legend
I love how Granda Joe is always holding the baby
this show was such a wonderful surprise. never knew I needed this in my life but god damn it's outstanding
We all wish we could throw shade the way Sister Michael does.
Siobhan is a fine actor.
This is one of the programs that carried me through the pandemic. I watch it frequently and never tire of it. Brilliantly done.
So glad they put this on Netflix! I can’t wait for season two.
Sister Michael is a very well written character, she's deeply kind, but doesn't want her kindness to show.
This is when there needs to be a heart button on TH-cam.
Sister Micheal is hilarious! ❤
Apparently, there was a smirk as well. I mean I’m not sure what Our Lady of the Sorrows has to be smirking about, but that’s by the by. Hahaha.
She is so down to Earth, its astonishing
Sister Michael is the kind of teacher who rolls sass and brilliance all onto one and I honestly feel she deserves a spinoff of her own ❤️
“We’re the goodies”
She was like one of my fave things about this show. That and the guy that plays the main girl's dad. The side characters in this show were fantastic. Excited for the final season!
You terrify me...
My friend recommended this show saying she laughed her ass off. Honestly? I couldn’t breathe too!! What a great pick me up during the pandemic
Siobahn McSweeney is a treasure. I will return to her performances often and I hope she stars in something again soon.
“People in this country stop killing each other for FIVE MINUTES, and the whole world loses the absolute run of itself”
I love how sister Michael is just so done with everything that happens
One of the funnest and cleverest shows on Netflix, how I wish it had many more seasons -
“What are you doing sister? Didn’t you hear me?”
“You know what Jenny, I don’t think I did.” *snatches the paper from another girl to read it herself*
Sister Michael is a G! I fucking love this woman, she always comes through.
