Derry Girls writer-creator Lisa McGee has defended a joke in the first episode of the current third and final series about the under-representation of Catholics in the RUC.
And the Derry native admits being “nervous” about including jokes regarding The Troubles but believes humour is a way of dealing with some matters.
The joke comes when the girls are arrested on suspicion of the theft of computer equipment from the fictional Our Lady Immaculate College.
