Derry Girls set to leave lasting legacy as final series airs tonight
Four years after crashing on to our screens with memorable lines such as "I don't want to be an individual on my own", Derry Girls returns tonight for a third and final series.
The coming-of-age sitcom, written by Lisa McGee, follows four teenage girls and one "wee English fella" in 1990s Derry as they navigate concerts, crushes and bomb scares.
The comedy has been a ratings winner for Channel 4 and came to international attention after Netflix acquired the rights.
Derry locals often acknowledge the hit show as a vibrant antidote to the bleakness that pervades many depictions of Northern Ireland and the tourism and arts sectors there are hoping the programme will leave a lasting legacy.
