People Absolutely Loved The First Episode Of ‘Derry Girls’ Last Night

Just out of curiosity, if you weren't watching 'Derry Girls' last night on Channel 4 at 10pm, what else were you at?

Your answer better be sleeping...

If you didn't watch it you missed out big time and if you did, it'll be one of the main talking points in your work/college/school place today.

'Derry Girls' had been tipped to follow in the footsteps of the likes of 'Father Ted' and 'The Inbetweeners' and going by last night's love on Twitter, it's well on its way to becoming one of the channel's biggest hits ever.

As you can see in the main image, even James McClean loved it but he wasn't the only one, not by a long mile.

We haven't laughed this hard in a long time

‘I thought we were going to be individuals this year?’

‘I wanted to but me ma wouldn’t let me.’

‘Well I’m not being an individual on me own.’

Brilliant. Already love #DerryGirls
