Nicola Coughlan’s ‘stressful’ final Derry Girls season

OHMYGOSSIP — Nicola Coughlan says filming the final season of ‘Derry Girls’ was “really stressful”.
The 35-year-old actress revealed that a combination of COVID-19 protocols and scheduling changes made filming quite stressful as she had to rush straight from filming ‘Bridgerton’ to the ‘Derry Girls’ set.
She told Radio Times: “I think, because it was filming in COVID and it was really stressful, I don’t know that we really processed it.
“It was weird. I think it’s a show that now it really feels like it belongs to the fans, if that make sense.
“It felt like a blur because I wrapped ‘Bridgerton’ on a Friday morning – [production company] Shondaland were really kind to me and compacted all my final [scenes] – and it was heavy going because it was all the big stuff for Penelope [Featherington].
“Wrapped on a Friday morning, flew on the Saturday, costume and makeup on the Sunday and into set with Derry Girls on a Monday. So my head was fried.
“But yeah, Shondaland, I’m eternally grateful that they kind of made that work and made it happen. The experience was a blur, but the scripts are great. They’re always great.”
Meanwhile, Nicola was recently forced to miss the ‘Bridgerton’ premiere after testing positive for COVID-19.
The actress took to Instagram to reveal she wouldn’t be in attendance at the big event in London to celebrate the second season.
Posting a picture of herself in a white robe with a towel wrapped around her head, she wrote: “My Bridgerton Premiere look- a little different than expected.
“So I’ve been struck down with Miss Rona and I’m missing our first premiere- heartbroken is an understatement but sending so much love to my gorgeous cast mates who I hope have the best night.”
The ‘Derry Girls’ star still got glammed up for the night, with crimson red lipstick, metallic eyeshadow and a gorgeous silver statement necklace.
She jokingly referred to her look as “infectious virus but make it fashion”.
