Derry girls season 3
The third and final season has already come to an end in the UK, airing in Channel 4. The audience has been upset about bidding farewell to the five fun characters of the show. And there are still, viewers outside of UK who might be wondering where and how to watch this final season. It will be released on Netflix, so chill! But their hasn’t been released an official statements confirming the dates of its release.
When will “Derry girls” arrive on Netflix?
The first season ended airing on the TV on February of the year 2018 while the same season landed on Netflix on December 21, 2018. The gap was pretty long. But there’s hope for this season, we believe Netflix wouldn’t have such a long gap between it’s airing on Channel 4 and arriving on Netflix because the second season came on Netflix around four months after it ended on the TV. Now that the demand for season 3 is so high, it’s very likely that Netflix will land it pretty soon. Following the pattern of season 2, it might even be on Netflix this September.
Is it available on Netflix everywhere?
Well, not really. Netflix UK hasn’t aired the second season yet. So it’s very unlikely that the third season would be released on the platform anytime soon. It’s probably because the makers want to keep the show an All4 exclusive.
But viewers not living in the UK and not having the access to Channel 4 can definitely hope to see the show on Netflix in their areas. So a Netflix subscription can be your key to watch the Derry girls if you aren’t from the UK.
