The beloved comedy series came to an end in 2022 after three incredible seasons.
The final special episode aired focusing on the Good Friday Agreement, which celebrates 25 years this year.
This specific episode has been nominated for a BAFTA award. The scene heads up a shortlist of six nominees for the Memorable Moment Award.
