She is almost illegally delightful.

[@mek0411]

Exactly! Plus i just discovered yet ANOTHER show she's in called Big Mood (that's weirdly on Tubi as a tubi original) and she charmed me yet again with that cause her acting is on point in that as well!

[@JT-lp9ng]

Very much so! I love her!

[@outlawJosieFox]

She is absolutely delicious

[@jedigandhi]

Almost

[@rachelbrodeur2600]

Couldn't agree more. What a sweetheart!

[@stevencgr]

get her hosting SNL next season. clearly a fan and clearly has the skillset.

[@plkrtn]

She's not just got the skillset, she could go and teach them lessons - she's that good.

[@Cheesycat948]

YES!!!!!

[@benzaiten933]

she also was on a New Year's treat of Taskmaster.

[@louiebee6745]

[@christineherrmann205]

She's so amazingly _effortlessly_ funny.

[@StaceWah]

And *that* is why they should be even more excited ... all that amazing Irishness/craic

[@artetas-army5982]

Welcome to Ireland

“I’m not Beyoncé! Calm down - too much!” Nicola cracks me up 😂😂😂

[@littlealcor2338]

This needs to be longer, I didn't even realise it's 8 minutes..feels like it ended too soon. She's absolutely brilliant and funny and eloquent and wonderful and ethereal and I love her so fucking much!!

[@RJHart1214]

That's so cute! 🙈👌

[@allikat3730]

I would love to hear her and Emilia Clarke have a conversation. They both seem so warm, bubbly, and witty, and I feel like it would be so delightful to have the two of them in a room

[@louiebee6745]

Daenerys and Lady Featherington? Yes please!😁

[@randomuser91821]

More like lady whistledown

[@samcortezmusic]

She's like a lil firecracker!!! Wish we can see more of her in late night shows!!!

[@surette2012]

What a bit of sunshine she is. ❤ Nicola is just a lovely person, she truly deserves this great trajectory, she’s been working hard for so long. She’s so naturally funny and a great storyteller, as well.

[@user-it4zl2bv2m]

She is just the personification of delightful.

[@MrWillcapone]

She is a tonic. And Derry Girls is awesome.

[@NT-lq3lq]

Look out for Big Mood, a sitcom from Channel 4 in the UK.

[@Adme55]

[@HereForGoodVibes]

I kept refreshing this account for this video. I’m so excited.

[@passivesmoker451]

I did the same! Been waiting all night 😂

[@KK-oe4xw]

Me too. I was hoping New York would wake up soon!

[@Theob538]

SAMEEEEE !!!!!

[@keisha2120]

Oh my gosh, they are so great together. Just so fast bouncing off each other. Adore her but it multiplied when this chemistry with Seth happened

[@sapphiresong7]

she's like one of the brightest people I've ever seen on the show. she's like the embodiment of sparkling personality!

[@charlotted1321]

What a refreshing 'celebrity', love when talented and warm people are the ones at the forefront. I'm from Derry and she is on a mural in our town and rightfully so

[@asdabir]

Derry girls was one of the shows that got me through pandemic. Really hope to see the other girls in more things too

[@macacatalan6618]

Your should watch Renegade Nell! Louisa Garland who plays Orla plays the main role

[@macacatalan6618]

Sorry her last name is actually Harland

[@justaname70]

She is such a delight to watch! Truly so lovely and charismatic! And she is wearing the Artists for Ceasefire badge, thank you for promoting peace and love!💖

[@Methequeen]

Thank you for highlighting that ❤ 🇮🇪🇵🇸

[@themanderrlynn]

Why am I super obsessed with this cutie pie I cannot stop loving her.

[@kikis2686]

She is very charming in interviews. I could listen to her speak all day lol

[@cashmerenerd]

please do a 4 hour interview with nicola, this was amazing

[@acecoycoy]

I saw Derry Girls when it first came out and continued with the seasons. Definitely one of my family’s favorite shows. When I saw she was in Bridgerton, I was so overcome with joy for her. My family is Irish and we are so proud of her as Irish representation. It’s her time to shine! 🤍

[@denisefromdc1796]

I couldn't love her more! And yes, being Irish is much better!!!!🍀💙

[@cheesepizza5006]

Didnt even realize it was over. I wish it was longer. She’s so funny. 😭❤️

[@myrtlemcgovern6907]

Nicola is the most energetic, effervescent, lovely and extremely talented and caring human being. @SNL your ratings would skyrocket if.she hosted!

[@jennaj9671]

I adore her. I’m so excited for Polin.

[@alessandra7164]

I love her, she's such a funny and entertaining person and so good on every show she's on that I could listen to her for hours. And then she's beautiful with an incredible doll's face.

[@CareyTisdal]

Nicola Coughlan is like a bubbling fountain of joy and wit! Kudoos to Seth for asking good questions and staring at her with affection and admiration!

[@emilyh5785]

What an absolute joy of a woman

[@believe.receive]

She's super funny and charismatic (and so are her roles), but she's also so beautiful! Like objectively gorgeous. As they say, face card never declines.

[@GeekyNerdTheatre]

I love when the guests have Seth giggling like a school girl and I just adore Nicola. She knew she only had a limited amount of time on the show and crammed as many jokes in as she could. Get her on SNL stat.

[@gabifgt]

nicola is such a GEM! i'm so happy shes getting the recognition she deserves. love her in derry girls

[@rumiwrites-ej8bs]

She's so kind and down to earth and funny and beautiful I am positively in love

She is just so sweet and funny and such a great actor. I wish truly nothing but the best for her.

[@temporaladvisor3958]

Absolutely adored Derry Girls and was sad when it ended. Just started watching Big Mood, and waiting for the possibility of Seize Them! making it's way across the pond since there are so many brilliant comedic actors in that film. And, of course, Bridgerton returning this week. Nicola is not only a delightful actor, but a delightful talk show guest.

[@edie8931]

i like how kristen accepted the invite to move into her house😭😭

[@tnyjt4051]

she is such an angel on earth, god what a nice human being

Single-handily doing Irish foreign policy. What a lovely woman.

Brilliant and funny interview, Seth. Nicola is so charismatic and lovely. Please have her back when its possible.

Seth's gift is seeming absokutely thrilled to meet everyone and support their work. And she is a new fave, this was great but way too short! More more!

[@kf7094]

The more we see of that promenade scene the more awkward Penelope is 😂😭
