In 1993 I was a coach driver. I took a youth party on an adventure holiday to from Derry to France. I never stopped laughing for the whole two weeks. I believe that these girls make the show.
I just finished watching Derry girls last night and watching young offenders now and I'm just thinking ....Ireland is such a funny country ...... great actors here
I watched the young offenders too after watching Derry girls and honestly have to come to really really enjoy Irish comedy. I'm Indian and have been recommending Derry girls to all my friends. Love Father Ted too!
kiwirk c The writer of Derry Girls has said she has gotten emails from Kashmir complimenting her on the show, saying it reminded them of their local situation. It’s crazy how popular it has become globally!
I hope this is as big in America through Netflix as it is in England and Ireland. I can't stop re-watching it. My most re-watched show since Raising Hope. Excited for season 2 and the following seasons. Have more Orla moments she's my favorite😂
I live in Derry and have a hard time understanding stuff that they say in the show, because i personally don't know any girls or women that talk like they do.
My in-laws are all in Derry and my wife grew up in the Bogside and Creggan during the troubles. My family all love the show and say how on point it is. We live in Canada and we are getting all out Canadian friends into the show...though we do have to provide some translation.
I’m from Philippines and I watched Derry Girls because I’m waiting for Nicola Coughlan’s Season 3 on Bridgerton. This one cracked me up. The accent is too thiccccc and the jokes are on point! ❤️🤪
I’m from Scotland but my family are all from Northern Ireland so I grew up with the accent. Sometimes I catch myself saying certain words in a Northern Irish accent 😂 Derry Girls is absolutely great. One of the best comedy series I’ve ever watched.
Although I'm only of Irish descent, I have no trouble understanding the script in this amazing series. It is so funny and yet very sharply observant of all the emotions that must have been around at the time. My wife who is from Dundee says they talk too fast for her to follow - ! Pot & kettle comes to mind - !
I'm a Londoner and I think this show is fantastic. I love it that each girl has their own quirky way. Very funny and I understand what they are saying. No need for sub titles. Just brilliant!!
This is the best comedy I have seen for many years on many levels. Being an English Londoner of 63 I am not familiar with this Presenter but when he said that he makes it up as he goes along I believe him ! HOW could he possibly think she said she had a NORWEGIAN accent ? He WAS being serious ! :(
Northern Ireland isn't actually either because of all the conflict it's neither that's why you can get both an Irish passport and a British passport I have both passports because I classify as being both.
From Iceland here. This accent is actually easier for me to understand than London Cockney though my mother is actually English from London . The pronunciation of English words with a Derry accent sounds a bit like an Icelander/Icelandic speaking English, it probably has something to do with the Celtic and Gaelic roots of both Irish and Icelandic , so it makes it so easy for us Icelanders to understand this show . But after all that's what accents really are . It is when a population which had its own language becomes forced to speak another language . The old pronunciation , rhythmic and tones of the original language remains and this becomes an accent , while the original language becomes a dialect . That's why it is so important to preserve accents as they are sometimes the only thing that remains from an original language .
Loved the show& the girls.Whats it with Irish accent as I could listen to them all day talking.👍🏻Hope they bring back second series Derry Girls.Best ever...There funny& charming to watch..Big hit with the Englisg..Hurry back on our tv ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️class acting....
I grew up with the Irish accent as my mother Frances McCourt came from Derry in the 1930.s.I love this show and love and understand the Derry accent. Hope they do more soon.
