James from Derry Girls: They don't teach Irish history in UK schools... ever
"I think it's a bit mad because they're our neighbours and we should know that stuff."
In many ways, James - or the wee English fella as he's affectionally called - is the 'way in' for certain people that might not be well versed in Anglo-Irish history and the significant role that the Maiden City has played over the years. Aside from the brilliant gags, wonderful characters, and joyous nostalgia, Derry Girls has really resonated with audiences as it also offers people a very small but important history lesson.
Ultimately, Derry Girls has proven to be just as valuable an educational experience for some as it is enjoyable. Sister Michael would definitely approve of that!
