The highly rated comedy, written by Lisa McGee and based in Northern Ireland, explores a group of friends growing up in an all-girls Catholic school.
Netflix first picked up Derry Girls last year and distributed it as a Netflix Original in most regions. The United Kingdom doesn’t see it as an original title, but it does have the show streaming.
Once again, six episodes make up season 2 of Derry Girls. Season 2 kicks off with the girls attending an outdoor pursuits weekend. We also see the girls hoping to see Take That in Belfast, a 50s style prom and a Christmas episode.
