The esteemed Derry-born actress is an audience favourite as Erin's best friend Michelle, with her infamous one-liners having audiences in stitches.

The third and final series hit our television screens on Tuesday (April 12) to rave reviews, including our very own review of episode one.

Meanwhile, an iconic prop from one of the show's funniest scenes has been displayed for fans at the Ulster Museum in Belfast.

National Museums NI have a part to play in the Derry Girls legacy through the installation of the ‘differences’ blackboard at the Ulster Museum, which was re-created by Anna McCaughtry, prop master on the show.

The blackboard was introduced in series two, when the girls take part in a cross-community discussion to explore the similarities and differences between Protestants and Catholics, but the group can only think of differences.

You can catch up on episode one of series three of Derry Girls on All4 now.
