It looks like 90s dance legend DJ Norman Cook aka Fatboy Slim could make an appearance in the third and final series of Channel 4’s comedy series Derry Girls.

Music plays a significant role in the show, with the soundtrack taking a trip down memory lane featuring artists like CeCe Peniston, Whigfield, Enya and of course The Cranberries.

I mean who could forget the girls reaction to the 90s classic ‘Saturday Night’ in Season 1!

The show’s writer and creator Lisa McGee teased fans on social media, sharing a picture of Norman dressed in a Derry Girls season three puffer coat. What a tease

The caption reads: “We’ve come a long long way together @FatboySlim”

What’s in store for the final series?

Very little has been revealed just yet, but there’s rumours that young love and of course a little drama too.

Just before Christmas, Channel 4 shared a short teaser trailer which revealed the hilarious bunch of hormonal teens, Erin, Clare, Orla, Michelle and James had a run in with the police.

When will season 3 air?

No date has been set just yet for the third series, but it looks likely to be late 2022. We’ll keep you posted, don’t worry!
