Emotions are running high ahead of the last episode of Derry Girls tonight

The end is nigh.

Noooooo.

It cannot be, but unfortunately it is. Tonight marks the season finale on the first ever series of Derry Girls. The final episode will air tonight on Channel4 at 10pm and it is safe to say emotions are running high as people wonder what they will do without their fix of Erin Quinn and the gang.

Now although thankfully the TV show has been renewed for a second series, with even Nadine Coyle joining the stellar line-up of talented actors – it still isn’t helping people’s sorrow as we bid farewell to the series for awhile after tonight.

Over the past five episodes we have grown quite fond of many things, from Fionnula’s chippy to Tommy Tiernan as the people pleasing “Jerry”, to Michelle Mallon and her love for a drink and some techno, it will be sad to say goodbye, and people of Twitter have taken to the platform to share their feelings on just that very thing.

Roll on tonight! We too #cantcope.
