Irish Twitter reacts to the Derry Girls finale

Words: Eva O’Beirne

Last night’s one-hour special had us laughing, crying and mourning the loss of our beloved Northern Irish characters.

Irish Twitter had very much the same reaction – so we’ve compiled our favourite tweets about the show’s finale. Strap yourself in for some memes and heartfelt moments.

Aunt Sarah will forever be the most iconic character in the series

The cinematography from last night was something else

Sometimes there are no words that can adequately capture the emotion and significance of something as horrific as Bloody Sunday or important as the Good Friday Agreement. Liam Neeson does it with no words at all. Floored me. Peace in Northern Ireland MUST be protected #DerryGirls pic.twitter.com/xMoJTt1A6C
