Derry Girls (Channel 4)

He was there with them. Here he is doing his finest duck face pose.

I thought the second series was a bit weaker than the first, and this suggests that the 3rd follows the same trend.

It was OK, Da & Granda were good with Seamus "refusing" to wear a bell. Kevin McAleer and Neeson's response to him stole the show. It was the only proper laugh out loud moment.

Not enough of Sister Michael. Her line about making the gang think they had failed just because it was a slow day was great.

Looking back to the stories I read last week about Nichola Coughlan being written out of a lot of the show due to clashes with Bridgerton, I'm now quite glad. She ruined every scene.

What a sanctimonious wagon.

Yes Jamie-Lee, he was asking your age because he's a misogynistic pig, not because you're a grown ass woman playing a teenager which makes your age a relevant point of discussion.

I think he clearly touched a nerve with that question. It wasn't misogynistic but Tubridy handled it extremely poorly. He presented the question and said she might not like it and she gave a dismissal move on response but he still pressed her. She should've called him out for not being able to read his guests and for being a **** interviewer, unable to deviate from the cue cards.

In any case, there were so many more interesting ways to present that question and the responses would have been far more interesting than a blunt, what's your age.

Oh I'm not on the Tubridy defence, he's an odious wee turd and I've never been a fan.

He's definitely guilty of not reading the response since he went back for seconds.

But for her to jump on him for being a misogynist is a joke.

Even to suggest that it was a misogynistic question was nonsense in my opinion.

The question was entirely unnecessary. He would have known her age from his briefing notes. When she made it clear that she wasn’t putting up with his BS, he played the victim, saying that there was a compliment coming, making it all about him, not his guest. Patronising nonsense, and great to see her putting him in his place.

I'd agree that the 1st episode was decent, but jez the screeching of Nicola Coughlans character was way ott and very annoying.

"Absolutely hilarious"??

Really???

Now if you didn't like that episode, then your not a Derry Girls fan!

It was brilliant, Ma Mary stealing the show.

It did remind me of how much mothers were taken for granted in 80s & 90s, usually stayed at home in those days so we expected them to do everything.

Aunt Sarah to Mary about the plumers wife running off with the friend 'Imagine what the friend must look like'🤣

I've always thought the actress that plays Erin is over the top not Nicola Coughlan.

Yeah back on form now 😂

It even had the cigarette smoke filled room.

Shes meant to be a teenager

Sadly graham linehan has managed to as good as cancel fr ted
