OFFICIAL: Season 2 of Derry Girls will premiere on 5 March

Paul Moore

Derry Girls Season 2

YES!

After the first initial reactions to the first two episodes of Season 2 of Derry Girls arrived, we knew two things.

1) The season was shaping up to be cracker, 2) the very first episode is set to be one of the greatest episodes in the brief and brilliant history of the show.

After debuting and becoming a bonafide smash, the ending of Season 1 consolidated Derry Girls as one of the finest comedies around because it balanced humour and pathos.

Since then, Lisa McGee’s show has become a global behemoth that’s loved around the world.

As for Season 2, we know that the first two episodes see the gang head on an a ‘Friends Across the Barricades’ trip where they meet up – and shift – some Protestant lads.

Elsewhere, an inspirational teacher is set to land in their school but we reckon that they’re going to be nowhere close to matching Sister Michael’s ‘unique’ style.

Elsewhere, an episode that’s set around Bill Clinton’s famous visit to Foyleside looks set to take place.

Oh yes, the wait is almost over!

Season 2 of Derry Girls will air on Tuesday, 5 March at 21:15 on Channel 4.

Wise up and get it watched.

We can’t wait!
