So one special episode to go for an hour tonight.
Yet last nights episode nearly floored me......
what a start with them all chatting in the kitchen...just laughed the whole time
Then the ending.....clare got her first kiss... Then the bad news ....amazing
But then the ending of season 1 as the girls sang on stage and The omagh bomb was the breaking news was just as thought provoking
Thanks to the people of Derry in not posting pictures on social media of what was filmed outdoors and ruining it for everyone
Incredible series

"I must be only one thats doesn't like it  "
I think it's pretty overrated to be honest, a lot of the humour is very laboured. The character of Michelle is spot on though and the actress totally nails it |

As a total nerd (as you know) the continuity is spot on, from the weapons, the cars, correct reg plates, the security services uniforms, the fashion and the music
Tommy Tiernan is even better at being so quiet |

The end of the first series remains a touchstone for nordies of my vintage. The sheer randomness of the troubles intruding into your day to day teenage life was spot on. |

Almost as bad as that bellend Mrs Brown's boys.
Ah here, absolutely no comparison between the two. Derry Girls is funny!!"
Correct, Mrs Brown, awful, Derry super |

Grandad talking to Erin about the referendum and then holding hands with the baby walking out of the polling station hit me but then before the credits when Orla was dancing to the music I was laughing my head off

I don't hate it but I don't find it hilariously funny either. It's passable.
Probably because apart from everything else being very accurate the humour itself is also accurate and appropriate.
That's exactly how many people spoke and reacted to situations at that time and their own black humour was a shield.
It just looks like real life rather than a comedy. |
