Channel 4 shared a little teaser trailer for the third and final season of Derry Girls as a special Christmas gift.

Just last week the cast and crew wrapped filming for the last time. The cast shared emotional posts on social media saying goodbye to their characters, they left us all emosh!

In the trailer, the hilarious bunch of hormonal teens, Erin, Clare, Orla, Michelle and James appear to have had a run in with the police. An officer can be seen asking them to put their hands in the air and put their palms flat against the wall.

We even spotted a special cameo from the queen of Tiktok...Mammy Banter herself!

The writer and creator of the hit show Lisa McGee retweeted the video with the comical caption: "If you have a problem . If no one else can solve it…DO NOT call the Derry Girls. Sneak peek from series 3 for Christmas. #DerryGirls"

Typical Erin can be seen trying to solve the problem, exclaiming "This is a set up!"

Meanwhile Bridgerton superstar and absolute comedy genius, Nicola Coughlan, is in a tizzy playing Clare Devlin. She cries out: "You have my full cooperation sir!"

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!
