I think the clue is in their skin, hahaha. I work with teenagers, they all have acnes, no matter how well-groomed they otherwise are. The actors in Derry Girls have mostly clear skins
Funniest show in years! Glad Netflix has English subtitles, too. I watched Season One twice, and was loving Season Two so much I lost track of which episode was which. At the end of Season Two, I was like Dang! Over already! For me, the Headmaster Nun is one of the funniest characters. Siobhan McSweeney, Sister Michael.
@@cijmo I had to watch twice with subtitles, and I picked up a lot on second watching. Love this show so much! I'm happy for all of them, I know being mini-superstars wasn't something they expected. Well, maybe Siobhan McSweeney expected it. She is such a riot!
@@taylormcgrath In the programme they do but in real life, Saoirse and Jamie have Derry accents, Dylan has a London accent, Nicola has a Galway accent and Louisa has a Dublin accent (both in the Republic).
What Dylan said is quite true, I grew up in south London in the 1970s and they taught us nothing about Irish history. Only later did I realise the brutality of the British empire and saw it for what it was: a totally heartless, wicked con.
I was talking to a third generation ‘Irish girl’ from England who said it was only when she studied history in College that she’s realised that literally none of history of how the Irish were treated by the British was taught in British schools. Her grandmother was from Mayo and emigrated to England. It seems strange to me that neither her grandmother or her mother spoke to her about it at all.
the perfect candidate to be recruited for Irish Reunification and Independence efforts and or Scottish Independence efforts you are😅 Ripe for the picking you are!
@@fmcm7715Hey my grandad is from Mayo!!! 😂 my grandparents are both Irish my nan is from Kerry and my grandad mayo like I said and they both came to England at 14! But my mum talks abt the events in Ireland all the time I’m very informed and I wouldn’t have it any other way, my whole mums side is Irish (we all live in England tho) so Irish history is always talked about Edit: But yea nothing about Ireland history is taught in British schools, I did a history thing this year while being homeschooled and it had an Irish history bit but it never taught it properly for Bloody Sunday it never said that the English shot ppl for no reason at all I was very disappointed so even when they ‘try’ they can’t explain what happened properly
I nearly screamed when I saw the PROM DRESS. I literally, in the correct use, had a dress just like it in burgundy. I also had another in green or blue. I love Derry Girls. I grew up and live in the States in 80s. I also survived Catholic school.
just binged the show again for the third time & i’m finally getting around to the interviews 😭 the cast are so lovely! since i live in the middle east, i didn’t know anything about the history until Derry Girls. my favorite comfort show for sure 💖
Fabulous show - funny but with an undertone of tragedy and pathos running all the way through. I was so sad to hear James say that they don’t learn about the Troubles in English schools. It goes some way to explaining English Government policies, I suppose 🤦♀️
@@peterdunne2756 They teach actual history, if they didn't then people would realise as soon as they left school and found out for themselves. Does everything have to be paranoia and propaganda in your world? You've got an Irish name but sound more like an American republican. And as Alex B said, you do learn about the Troubles if you take history, they aren't going to tell you about them in the middle of a maths class.
my fav show, next to GOT and Ugly Betty. the story line is too good, so funny, but nice sad elements and the soundtrack is brillant. cant believe how underrated the actors in this show are. they are all so good! love from India
Geeze James must seem super weird to the interviewer who just watched the first episode of season two, kind of like the Protestant boy James was trying to impress hahaha.
yeah she's right lol Louisa Harland (who plays Orla) is from Dublin and Nicola Coughlan (who plays Clare) is from Galway so their accents are slightly different irl I think Saoirse-Monica Jackson (Erin) and Jamie-Lee O'Donnell (Michelle) are the only ones from Derry irl
Love this show more than The young offenders and I'm from Cork both shows are funny. But Derry girls are that tiny bit more funny. Didn't know the new series was on. So thanks for helping to find out. Hope there are more episodes than last year. It's a classy comedy and the Irish do excellent to watch comedy so I'll look fecking forward to watching this gang again. Excellent talented lady's make it watchable
We're gonna have to get a VPN so we can watch The Young Offenders you mentioned. I looked it up, it looks funny but neither my browser nor my apps will let me watch it due to my location.
Having grown up as a teenager in the 90s, watching shows like Father Ted, I really thought this type of comedy would never be shown again on TV, as everyone is so offended and 'comedy' these days is so watered down. Finally got round to watching, and I was hooked from the first episode. The comedy, the music, the outfits are all on point. Great chemistry between all of the actors. I laughed, I cried, I laughed until I cried the show was perfect.
Marathoned through all three series/seasons last weekend. Loved it! I was a Canadian teenager in the early '90s, so could totally relate. I see it compared to The Inbetweeners, which was a great show too, but the social and cultural climate and changes swirling around the characters had more in common with The Wonder Years (the American '90s series that took place in the '60s). Regardless, DG is its own show with its own voice (Lisa McGee's) and its own identity. Absolutely brilliant!
At least he was honest - I am utterly sick and tired of presenters/interviewers who talk to guests as if they are totally up to date with every aspect of the programme being discussed. In addition the first series of Derry Girls was a huge 'sleeper' - very few people 'got it' first time around.
I first saw Derry Girls on The Great British Bake Show and loved them. I then watched their series and loved them even more. I remember hearing about the terrible bombings going on in Ireland. My Grandmother was from Ireland. We are Irish Catholic, like The Derry Girls.
@@johnking5174 I am from Pakistan(now in the US) and I LOVED it. Reminded me of what the MQM used to do to Karachi and what Taliban have done to the rest of Pakistan. That last scene was horrifying and I was almost in tears.
@@johnking5174 Haven't really had problems with that so far. It's just a brilliant show, and educates about a part of history that many of us know too little about (including me), so that's great
I feel very similar about Hullraisers. The town where I grew up finally getting represented on prime time tv. And you always heard about "the troubles," going on in Ireland on the news when I was growing up in the 1980's.
this may be the worst tv host ever. "I just watched the first episode of the second" and then goes on to say you don't need to watch the first season. This fool is clearly unaware of his role as a TV host.
Yeah... I feel like his aim was like a press talking point 'it's fine, you can jump right in now and go back later, you'll pick it up as it goes along,' but he took that as 'burhgh burhgh series 1 can go do one, your little show doesn't matter to me or my fake tan sonnie jim, i watched the one in my trailer and you seemed WELL confused, as was i''
So, I watched this show and I thought it was funny as Hell. So, I told my friend that her teen daughters should watch it. And after reviewing an episode, she said her husband thought it was inappropriate for his girls. When I pressed him he said, "Jesus Frank do you want them to commit suicide?" Keep in mind they all watched Game of Thrones together, from beginning to end .
2:27 "making me a gemini." but auto english generated subtitles said making me a germany. which is what i had understood which is why i put the subtitles on in the first place. I absolutely love the irish accent, and in general, uk humor is just so rich. very fascinating to learn the actress who plays erin is actually from there. very cool. just started watching the show today and just finished the first season. good show i love the theme and setting of it all.
She's hilarious, and probably the most admirable character on the show. Totally honest, she knows who she is and doesn't say anything she doesn't mean.
ITS GOING TO GET A MOVIE ! I can tell from the articles about season 3. They all mention that the gang could/might be back in another facet. I’ve read that in at least 3 different articles. Soooo I’m thinking … there might be a Derry Girls Movie !
@@reggiekemp9175 YaAAaaA! 🙃 I'd go see it twice ! Did you watch the Absolutely Fabulous Movie, I saw it in theatres. Derry Girls would be so much better! Ahhh I can tell !
@@tershii OMG how do you know me do well and we haven't even seen each other? 😂😂😂 yeah I did haha and I have to say that I ADORED the film but I agree Derry girls would be a MILLION times better and BILLION times better accents too hahah
@@reggiekemp9175 I just kinda made the comparison. Better accents of course. I love the 90s. Its hard trying to remember a time that had no reality television shows. It seems so distant. It’s nice to be brought back .
When talking about modern Ireland, one thing that needs to be mentioned was how a Protestant Irish Parliament successfully gained independence for Ireland between 1782 and 1800 during which time Catholics got most of their rights back, with most Irish people of different faiths uniting under the ideologies of either constitutionalism or Republicanism, with both in favour of varying degrees of Irish sovereignty/autonomy and increased personal rights. This independence ended when a failed Republican Revolution in 1798 led British prime minister William Pitt to intimidate and bribe the Irish Parliament into merging the Kingdom Ireland into the UK after an initial Union vote failed. Ireland’s Parliament was forced to merge with The British one (though the courts and civil service of Ireland remained separate, but nominally subject to Westminster from now on). People on both sides seem to have completely forgotten this chapter in Irish history, because Protestants and Catholics fighting together for an independent Irish Kingdom doesn’t fit anyone’s narrative, and yet it had a major impact on the island. Unionism, Republicanism and Constitutionalism all originate from the original Irish volunteers that used the opportunity of the American Revolution distracting Britain to revolt in 1782. This heralded the independence and has shaped all aspects of Irish politics, ever since
@@reienriquez9245 haha d best un.. Pinaka.nagustuhan kong nun role sa.mga palabas 😂 my kalokohan din. Ung ky erin ung mukha nya eh malinaw pa sakit ng araw.kung anung emotion meron xa
Where’s Sister Michael then? Siobhan McSweeney❤ but this was for me as a Swede a revelation of sorts. That it’s possible to actually joke and make comedy about what happened. I love the accents and the young actors were splendid ❤️
