What time is Derry Girls on tonight - where to watch and what to expect

Happy Derry Girls day, to all who celebrate! The time has finally come for us to get our weekly fix of the gang from Our Lady Immaculate, as the final season begins tonight on Channel 4.

It has been a long three-year wait but Tuesday night begins the first of six episodes where we follow the final high-school year of the Derry Girls gang.

Fans have been taking to social media with their exciting theories about the new series, but Glasgow Live is here to give you the lowdown on what season three will have in store for us.

Here is all you need to know about the first episode of Derry Girls, season three:

What is the first episode of Derry Girls about?

Spoilers ahead! The synopsis for the first episode of season three of Derry Girls reads: "Tomorrow is GCSE results day, and while passions run high, confidence is at rock bottom.

"They definitely need a plan. Back home, a new member of the Quinn household is causing chaos in the neighbourhood."

Although GSCE's translate into National 5's and Highers in Scotland, we're sure all of us remember the anxiety that surrounded results day - especially when it came to going into higher education, such as university or college.

Given that Erin (Saoirse-Monica Jackson) and Clare (Nicola Coughlan) are the over-achievers of the gang, it is thought that the majority of the academic stress will surround them.

Michelle (Jamie-Lee O'Donnell) is usually the most relaxed when it comes to things like school work - but she may surprise us and be serious about her future.

And a new member of the Quinn household? This could be anything from an estranged relative to a new pet, but you'll have to tune in tonight to find out.

When is Derry Girls on tonight?

The first episode will premiere at 9:15pm tonight, and run for half an hour until 9:45pm.

Where can I watch Derry Girls?

Derry Girls premieres exclusively on Channel 4 on Tuesday evenings, and is not yet available on any other streaming service, like Netflix.

One verified fan, author Jenna Guillaume, did ask creator Lisa McGee on Twitter: "Ahhh. Do you know when it will be on Netflix internationally?"

Lisa replied: "Not yet but will let you guys know as soon as I do xxx"

So, be prepared international fans, for a date to be released soon on when Derry Girls will be available on Netflix.

Tune into Channel 4 tonight to experience the first episode of the third and final season of Derry Girls, at 9:15pm.
