Derry Girls Fans Are Just Realising Where They've Seen This Character Before

The new season of Derry Girls is in full swing and fans are just realising where they recognise one of the show's latest characters from.

In the latest instalment of the show, the group head off on a day trip to Portrush, and of course, it doesn't come without its blunders.

While on the train, the group end up in a bit of trouble after James picks up the wrong rucksack and finds a gun. They believe it belongs to a guy off the train named Jordy, and come up with a plan to return it.

But eagle eyed fans are sure they recognise Jordy from somewhere. Can you spot which show he's been in?

Yep, actor Packy Lee also starred in Peaky Blinders as Johnny Dogs.

Johnny is Tommy Shelby's right hand man and has appeared in every season of the show.

Originally, Johnny was only supposed to appear in one episode, but after becoming one of Tommy's closest allies he's been a firm fixture in the family.

And it looks like fans spotted him almost immediately.

One Derry Girls fan wrote on Twitter: "Wait was that Johnny dogs from peaky blinders?"

While another said: "Johnny Dogs on #DerryGirls, love it."

And a third added: "#DerryGirls was such a hoot tonight... Anybody else spot Johnny Dogs from Peaky Blinders on the train?"

Meanwhile a fourth commented: "Omfg Johnny Dogs from peaky blinders in the new derry girls episode."

And a fifth added: "Was that Johnny Dogs from Peaky Blinders in #DerryGirls tonight?!"

Fans have been loving the new season so far. Earlier this month we told you how viewers were left in shock when a very familiar face had a cameo appearance in the first episode of the long-awaited third series.

And fans were so excited to see the actor. You can read more on that here.
