A transmission date has yet to be confirmed, but we might have some idea what to expect in series two, with writer Lisa McGee previously telling RadioTimes.com that she’s “toying” with covering the ceasefire and how it “actually unsettled people”, as well as Bill Clinton’s 1995 visit to Derry.
The sitcom follows a group of four teenage girls from Derry (hence the name) and their school lives in the 1990s during the Troubles.
Earlier this year, Derry Girls claimed the title of Radio Times Comedy Champion, beating Inside No 9 in a competition where almost a million votes were cast.
