James showing up to save the day absolutely delighted Derry Girls fans

Paul Moore

Derry Girls

Cracking moment.

He may be constantly abused and called a dick by his cousin Michelle, but when James needed to be there, well, he saved Erin’s night.

After Miss Quinn pulled out all the stops to trap convince John-Paul to attend their ’50s prom – we’re still going to call it a debs/formal, but hey – it looked like she’d finally be going with ‘the biggest ride in Derry’.

However, the fairytale almost turned into a nightmare after Erin squeezed into her dress and patiently waited for her date. Alas, she was left waiting and waiting.

The clock kept on ticking and just as she was about to head up to her room to change, the doorbell rang and James arrived.

Turns out he didn’t go to that convention about the show which features a “lad that fights with hoovers and rides aliens in a telephone box”.

In case you’re wondering about the track that was playing when he arrived, it’s ‘Independent Love Song’ by Scarlet.

The wee English fella had done good. Could we be seeing the start of a romance between Erin and James?

Plenty of people think they’re off to a solid start.
