With Derry Girls season two recently coming to joyous-yet-emotional end, we've got some good news as it's revealed the Channel 4 hit series is coming to UK Netflix.

The comedy, which was recently renewed for a third series, will hit the streaming service once again, but this time in full.

The story of Erin (Saoirse-Monica Jackson), Orla (Louisa Harland), Clare (Nicola Coughlan), Michelle (Jamie-Lee O'Donnell) and the gang used to be available on Netflix, but this time it will return with the second season too.

And, it's all happening sooner than you might've thought, as the successful sit-com is set to hit the streaming service next month.

Channel 4

Derry Girls has gone down an absolute treat with Channel 4 viewers, with the first episode of season two amassing an incredible 3.2 million viewership, which is the biggest comedy launch on the network for 15 years.

When the show was renewed for a third season, the show's creator, Lisa McGee, said: "I love writing this show and I'm so thrilled to be able to continue the Derry Girls story, thank you Channel 4, Erin and the eejits live to fight another day!"

Fiona McDermott, head of comedy at Channel 4, added: "It's no surprise that Derry Girls continues to delight a growing legion of fans - a combination of magical writing and adorable characters make this show both timely and timeless.

"We're delighted to confirm a third series - don't tell Ma Mary, but I'm breaking open the Christmas cupboard in celebration."

Season two came to a heartwarming end as London-born James Maguire decided to stay in Ireland after all, declaring "I am a Derry Girl!" We can't wait to see what the next season has in store.

Derry Girls will be available to stream on Netflix from 8th May.
