Waterford's Jamie Beamish makes a return to "Derry Girls"

Waterford actor Jamie Beamish returned to Derry Girls last night, having played Ciarán in Season 1 and 2.

His character appeared for the first time in Season 3, in the fifth episode of the hit Channel 4 show.

In this episode, no stone is left unturned as Ma Mary and Aunt Sarah prepare for the highly anticipated Class of '77 School Reunion.
