Derry Girls (Northern Irish comedy, Channel 4, January 4th)
 


Quote:

The new Northern Ireland-based comedy Derry Girls is set to premiere on Channel 4 in the New Year.

Set against the backdrop of the Troubles, the upcoming series will give TV viewers a glimpse of life here in the early 1990s.

The sitcom is being touted as one of the broadcaster's upcoming big hits, with a satirical look at life as a normal teenager amid unusual circumstances.

This looks good, I'll give the first episode a watch.

The trailer reminds me of Some Girls.

RileyH 25-12-2017 10:56 PM

The gal with the black hair is already iconic

RileyH 18-01-2018 03:34 PM

I'm loving it so far

Michelle :love:

Renewed for a second series.

It was renewed after just the first episode.

MIND. BLOWN.

RileyH 28-01-2018 07:44 AM

MESS :skull:

Smithy 10-02-2018 06:28 PM

1,2 & 6 were the best eps, the eps where they aren’t at strong aren’t as strong imo, the nun and the prissy girl are really good supporting cast members.

Can anyone explain the end tho, why were they showing the bombing (was anyone else hoping the old man had been killed btw? He’s such a **** :fist:) as a montage with the girls dancing :conf2:

RileyH 10-02-2018 06:32 PM

i need to catch up

LaLaLand 13-02-2018 10:33 PM

I've only just got into DG, watched the whole series tonight and I love it! Def a new fav of mine now.

The ending was brilliant too, so touching and fitting for the time the show was set. Shows the girls innocence and perhaps defiance in what was going on on their doorstep.

Shaun 01-03-2018 10:27 PM

this is iconic

LaLaLand 01-03-2018 10:35 PM

I've rewatched it again since finishing first time and it's just brilliant. Orla is iconic!

"Who the **** is Kemal?"

"He's a wee Ethiopian fella from Ballybofey"

Can't wait for Series 2.

Shaun 03-03-2018 12:13 AM

"The next stage is Rome. An audience with the big man."
"Pavarotti."
"John Paul II."

RileyH 13-02-2019 07:54 PM

Ahhhhhhh

thisisdanny 13-02-2019 07:58 PM

So excited :love:

Daniel-X 13-02-2019 09:42 PM

Cannot bloody wait

LaLaLand 13-02-2019 09:43 PM

I'm bloody landed I loved the first series!

Jason. 13-02-2019 09:46 PM

Saw the trailer earlier, really excited for this.

LaLaLand 13-02-2019 09:47 PM

Was watching a S1 episode the other day, when they set the chip woman's curtains on fire so the Mam and Auntie staged a hostage situation.

"Shall we knock them about a bit? Nothing drastic just a few slaps? Not even the wee gay fella?" :laugh3:

Found a clip!


Shaun 14-02-2019 04:10 AM

the greatest C4 sitcom (bar Peep Show) of all time? i think so!

Denver 20-02-2019 03:37 PM

Series 2 airs 5th March 9:15pm

Shaun 04-03-2019 07:45 PM

Starting tomorrow :flutter:

Tony Montana 04-03-2019 08:04 PM

Really? I guess I'll give it a try then. Your review of it seems to sway me

Should i watch series 1 though first?

thisisdanny 04-03-2019 08:18 PM

Tony you NEED to watch it

Just read about it and it's only 35 minutes and there's only 6 episodes

I'll watch the first 3 episodes later and finish off the rest tomorrow just before it returns

If it's anything like the Inbetweeners, then that's fantastic

It's funny

Are the girls similar to Will, Jay, Neil and Simon?

To be honest, I'm just speaking from memory of only seeing it once, which was when the first series aired.

I probably should and will watch it again myself.

The Inbetweeners was the thing it seemed most similar to, to me. But you could find it totally different.

Ok I'm about to watch the first episode now

I'll let you know what I think of it

thisisdanny 04-03-2019 08:46 PM

I think the first episode was the best :love:

Smithy 05-03-2019 09:32 PM

Protestants hate ABBA!!!

RileyH 05-03-2019 09:34 PM

god I ****ing LOVE Orla

LaLaLand 05-03-2019 10:03 PM

So glad this is back! Good first ep. Don’t think weve seen the last of those lads, especially Dee.

LaLaLand 06-03-2019 07:03 AM

Sister Michael absolutely kills me :laugh2:
