They're back!

The stars of Derry Girl of the hit Tv show will be making a one-off charity special.

RTÉ have announced that they are holding a Comic Relief fundraiser which will see a reunion of the Derry Girls cast.

The event which is taking place on 26th June will see some familiar Irish faces, including Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar from Normal People.

Head of Entertainment at RTÉ, John McHugh said:

"We want to thank the public for staying in so far and remind people that staying in still matters.

"We want to celebrate the front-liners' contribution and raise much-needed funds for a range of charities that are struggling to provide their services, as their fundraising activities have been severely hampered [by the pandemic]".

According to the IrishPost, the funds raised will be handled by Comic Reliefs charity partner, The Community Foundation, who will divide the money to charities across the country.
