Derry Girls review: A fitting finale with tears, laughter, and Fatboy Slim (Irish Examiner)

What happened? The final episode of Derry Girls opens with Ma Mary (Tara Lynne O'Neill) and Aunt Sarah (Kathy Kiera Clarke) chatting away in the kitchen against ...

In the final moments of Tuesday’s show, Da Gerry receives a phone call that knocks the air from his lungs. And then there’s the moment when finally – FINALLY – Clare gets kissed! Showing up at the Fatboy Slim concert, he delivers the shocking news that Clare’s dad has had an aneurism. I am gaspin, I mean I’ve a mouth on me like Andy’s flip flop, I tell him we need to stop at the shop and grab me a calypso, but he says he has a better idea and he pulls over and he whips out this ring. After an outstanding opening episode, Derry Girls stumbled a little bit in the mid-section of its final season. And he asks me if I’d do him the honour of accepting it.”

Derry Girls: Tears amid all the laughter as famous DJ visits for the ... (Belfast Telegraph)

Halloween — the biggest night in Derry's social calendar, transcending politics and religion with its cross-community appeal.

The night is young, and she can’t wait to find Laurie among the throngs. In a stroke of sheer manipulation, Michelle manages to blag five VIP freebies when she takes their sob story to the TV, explaining how poor James received a black eye and a broken leg in an unprovoked assault. We knew that something was amiss earlier when we saw him break off from breaking off Aunt Sarah’s fake engagement to Ciaran, to take a phone call and solemnly ask ‘when?’ This could be the night she finally gets a snog. As the gang celebrates Clare’s moment of bliss, Gerry (Tommy Tiernan) arrives with news that Clare’s dad has suffered an aneurysm. But tickets are like hen’s teeth and when the gang manages to bag the final five, this provokes a maniac called Mad Stab to throw the gauntlet down to James. Whoever wins a fight, wins the tickets. She swears her way through the interview (and yes, we heard it all, despite the bleeps), but there’s a brilliant exchange between the two when Michelle lists her cousin’s failings. The only problem is that Laurie has come dressed as a clown and there are quite a few of them. Poor James is petrified and ‘high on adrenalin’, grabs the tickets and tears them up. Mad Stab is played by Emmett Scanlon in a genius piece of casting. In their lit-up angel wings and fluffy halos, the five head off for the best night of their lives; James sporting a fake black eye and walking with a crutch. Mad Stab wants to kill him.

The final episode of Derry Girls season 3 delivered the moment we ... (Stylist Magazine)

The final episode of Derry Girls season three was full of surprises – especially for Nicola Coughlan's Clare.

It’s at this point when Clare receives some awful news about her dad, but we don’t want to focus on that for the time being. However, while they’re being bundled out by the venue’s security guards, Clare ends up face-to-face with Laurie, who tells her she was planning on making a move that night. Some (read: a lot) of chaos later, the group find themselves being kicked out.
