Derry Girls, 2018-2022, Netflix Series - Last Season

Derry Girls is going to the 3rd Season, streamed in October on Netflix, it's a comedy about the daily lives of the friends Erin, Saiorse Monica, Michelle, Jamie Lee-O'Donnell, Clare, Nicola Coughlan, Orla, Louisa Harland and James, Dylan Llewellyn the teenagers of the School of Our Lady Immaculate College, citizens of Derry, in the Northern Ireland, as well their activities at home.     

    

 Trailer Season 1


The series is so much fun, besides their peculiar accent and expressions, they are all the time getting in trouble because they just want to find a way to survive. The script is most of the parts enigmatic, they are always planning things, but you don't know exactly what it is, and it seems they are all struggling financially. 

One of the most beautiful things to see is their very strong friendship, and they have an open dialog, funny when Clare says she is gay, and no one believes but give all the support. God helps Cleare. Michelle is always saying some bad names, but she is being ironic most of the time. James is the one they spent most of the part bullying and Orla is the quietest of them all. 

They live with a big family inside the house, even Clare that is just a friend sleeps there all the time. They explore well the possibilities of activities in Derry, a city that has a constantly policing of the Irish army called IRA. Derry is a historical city know by the conflicts between Catholics and Protestants that began in 1922. In the beginning of the Conflicts the Catholics represented 85%, now, they report that the number of Catholics is around only 35%. In 1981, IRA expanded their operations outside Derry, bombing in London. This means the number of Catholics is less of 35%. When these groups take control of one place, they expand. That's the main point, included I read, that these groups were bombing in Derry, until now in 2021. This is not a good sign. They are terrorists and these terrorists are really going outside if they are out of control. 

Tribute to the girls that made Derry famous internationally, now in Brazil by Netflix. 

The series is restricted to their daily lives, but the Teacher, the sister Michael, that is so much fun, creates activities that educate all the students to be tolerant, peaceful and they are involved and conscious, what is to have their lives monitored. She is impartial and has nice decisions. She is always monitoring the Crew so they cannot get in trouble. One of the funniest parts with her was when she was in the same bus with the crew and they were carrying a luggage with Vodka, and they lied telling that was not theirs, so she called the IRA and they were with Robots in the street to inspect the Luggage, to check if had a bomb inside. 😁

      The Leader Jenny Joyce creates all the theatrical and musical of the School and the sister is always saying: - Jesus Christ Jenny. She is Epic. 

Interesting to note, Erin was about to greet a old woman in a village, Erin said like goodbye: - Slan.  I don't know what it means but, they seem to be a mix of Gypsies with other parts of Ireland. They are a kind of hybrid at the first view. They have some characters varieties but has some scenes where they seem innocent, in the case where two men stole the computers in the school. 

In the end Education is the main factor in the fight against terrorism. Now in Derry they are facing poverty and the population made a protest against the increase in electricity tariff, for sure these conflicts contributed to the impoverishment of the region.

Here the very interesting activities, in the Season 2, where they point the main similarities and differences between Catholics and Protestants, in case you are interested in Derry.
