Watch Derry Girls season 3 from abroad using a VPN

Even if you have a All 4 account, you won't be able to stream Derry Girls when outside the UK. The service will know your location based on your IP address, and will automatically block your access.

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) helps you get around this obstacle. It creates a private connection between your device and the internet. There are lots of VPNs to choose from, but we think ExpressVPN is one of the very best...
