Thanks to Derry girls I can now understand Irish accent without subtitles 😂
That's just one Irish accent there's loads on such a smile island, I'm from Limerick I've a different accent to other people from different parts in Limerick that's just one example
@@christophercrowley7574 yeah I know that but it's still very helpful :)
Sorry to break it to you but the northern Irish accent (one of them) is the only one of many Irish accents
@@Zoe-eg4fg like I said previously I know that :) but the show helped regardless.
Had being in eg,and as English people don’t come with sub titles
Saoirse-Monica Jackson is truly a light-hearted, down-to-earth person. And she's also a very talented actress! The first time I saw her in Derry Girls (which was also the first time I've seen her at all), I already knew that she is incredible.
She played an arrogant/annoying character so well that I started to love it
@@humanhater2266 We all, love.
Great girl. Förlåt.
Jag var finare migsjälv
Han var roligare än jag trodde. , kunde inte prata med en så rolig människa
What is it about these kids that brings tears to my eyes. It's not just the fact that the characters are my contemporaries. There have been many nostalgic programs over the years but none of them have felt like the warm blanket that is Derry Girls.
im australian and have no connection to northern ireland but i totally agree!
Indeed. I'm an American, Baptist, male, but this show cuts deep.
Det funkade sisådär.
@@wvu05 How do you say "International"?
Exactly like
They say that
Fry can do the Austrailian
He can.
One of the best comedy shows I've seen in a while. The whole cast was awesome and I love that accent. All of them are so charming.
I just know that whenever I see this, I will tear up. I never thought I would love another sitcom again, and yet Lisa McGee and her team proved me wrong. A brilliant, heartfelt, madcap ride of a show. My love and best wishes to the entire time always for giving us this beautiful gift.
I am a 52 yr old and am not ashamed to say I had my pic taken in front of the mural-I love the Derry Girls.
26+6. May Ireland have peace and oneness again one day.
Patsy Stone and Erin Quinn, this is everything 😂
Omg I love Patsy so much
If Joanna Lumley could present in Patsy’s voice LOL
I just finished watching Derry Girls on Netflix and it’s easily one of my favorite shows now ❤
Never been to Derry, but have been to Belfast. Murals are a thing. Give reason to think about what transpired and peace. Derry Girls as a mural are a real and deserved honor. What a great show!!
We enjoyed Derry Girls so much and through its touching portrayal of some extremely difficult times using humor as a vehicle we were motivated to investigate the troubles more. As Americans we were exposed to a very stripped down version of events and came to respect Ireland and all of its layers of wonderful complexity and culture. So thanks very much for the show and to these amazing young ladies for their work.
I just love the way they say “girls” in the Derry accent
Joanna is just class. Saoirse-Monica seems so proud of Derry and so she should me. I think all off us - just a little bit - want to be Derry Girls!
I've been to Derry, it's such a lovely place with warm people and a ton of History they can be proud of. Recognising places in Derry Girls was so much fun, besides the fact that the show in itself is grand.
As someone who lives away from home, this show really helped in keeping me connected to my roots.
This is so wholesome it made me want to start watching the show
Please do!!!! Its so fun
It's the best thng that's been on television in years
@@lsamoa 100% it was but now it's over but better end at the top rather than drag it put for years
@@johnrockyryanthats what british/irish shows do well, they always end on a high note. they’ll only be a few seasons long but they’ll be quality till the end. american shows will flog a dead horse, they keep it going until its not funny
Two absolute legends in this vid
gosh darn that is beautiful in so many ways. Lumley is a treasure as are all the people of Derry & Ireland!
That show really got me exited to go to Ireland especially Derry
👍☘️but apparently it's Britain 🤔🥱
I love the mural especially the one for derry girls, it's amazing and phenomenal.
You wouldn't get a show like Derry Girls on BBC and ITV. This is why Channel 4 is the best channel in the world.
You are 100%, sir. I've said this for years. Channel 4 is the reasin I love Asian cinema. They were the first terrestrial chaannke to show The Exorcist and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and their documentaries are always too class. Bravo C4.
@@deanmccauley1356 They also make most of the UK's best shows, films and actors too.
Channel 4 are epic. Always wondering if BBC or ITV would've made things like Queer as Folk, Skins or It's A Sin? Even things like Hollyoaks touched topics that I don't believe have ever been touched by the big two soaps.
Their documentaries are also brilliant. A completely different UK to the one that BBC like to show.
@@DarrenBates Most of the shows that the US go on to steal from us are from Channel 4.
Absolutely fabulous pair (pun intended). This brilliant show was never shown on Australian "free to air" TV. I discovered the Derry Girls on UA-cam by chance and quickly became obsessed with the story and the characters. I'm ordering a DVD of all 3 series from England.
Her laughter is so refreshing, and I love the way she speaks so much! ❤
The Undertones and Derry Girls,all from the one city,perfect
Not sure, if i will visit ireland, but if I do, i will go and visit Derry. I loved the show so much ❤️
Joanna Lumley is a treasure!
Derry girls one of the best shows ever
Good comedy requires good characters and good writing. Great comedy gives us pathos and superb characters and sublime writing. M.A.S.H. in it's later seasons managed that. Derry Girls did it from day 1.
100% As well as brilliant casting.
This was so cute. Lumley looks fantastic. ❤
I love Derry Girls and isn't Joanna Lumley not just the best person in the world?
They are both so charming.
Great mural!
I *love* her lovely lilting Irish accent too! I could listen to her reading a recipe book aloud and I'd be spellbound!
Fantastic show fantastic cast.
what a series. great work.
A well deserved mural.
That was absolutely fabulous!
Poor James, even in mural form he gets shafted 😂
I love Joanna. I watch all her documentaries
Enjoyed so much. A millennial from Canada and so much translated for me. Well done. Will miss it!
Joanna has been my life long crush , l adore her voice.
Is her accent even more Derry than in the show?
Lumley is so cool
I'm a fan of Derry girls from 🇵🇭 and I watched it from Netflix. I hope to visit there someday.
I absolutely loved the series. What amused me was that my wife and her mum, both from Dundee couldn't understand the Derry accent - ! 😅
A brilliant show to be had .. even if I was late to the party. So many resilient characters are born and raised through the most turbulent times… yes, it does build grit and resourceful people… but know we are in times where humans have been here on the planet so long… mental health.. real and serious mental health issues are rampant and the tipping scale cannot be gleaned back to more healthier times.. even if we had and know the right answers and responses. Derry Girls through its dark and hilarious comedic geniuses and crew.. allow , I hope , some cathartic healing, while being able to shine a light on the past , in the event to not have it repeated. We all need some inner peace to thrive to our potential . 😊Love a good mural !
Immense Respect for Joanna Lumley and the Gurkha Welfare Trust. Good on ya lass!
That place is beautiful hopefully I will be able to travel to Ireland someday
the food is great. very fresh
@@carolperry7695 So true! Amazing food
Such a sweet girl.
Gotta say love how they're both dressed so similarly, especially the scarfs 😅
you can never have enough hats, gloves and shoes.💕
Love both these ladies
Thank you.
Love both these ladies!
Two icons out on the town.
Brilliantly funny and clever show👍❤️
I loved this show! ❤️ ¡Me encanto este show!
Saoirse-Monica Jackson's Wikipedia article is illustrated with her portrait from the mural.
Love Derry Girls!
I love this accent
This show is amazing
Two wonderful women.
omg I love this
"the town that I love so Well ..."
Lol I take being from here for granted sometimes I see this all everyday
The mural has been slightly updated: Michelle now holds up three fingers to indicate three series.
God I love the Derry Girls!
I really want to visit Derry x
Plenty of scope to portray the famous seige in movies. The mural is great and highlights positive.
Unfortunately (and brilliantly) this has eclipsed The Undertones as the best thing to come from Derry. I am sorry and elated at the same time!
Beautiful
Love the show ❤️❤️❤️
God, she’s gorgeous.
Who?
🤍 Derry Girls!
Derry Girls have done good.
For a lot of people.
That's awesome
Wonderful 😊💕☘️
Derry Girls, a fun look at a serious subject
It's ERIN!!!
I was there yesterday and it is way bigger in person 😂
I wondered what mirrors they were talking about and it's murals. :)
Mirrors in Derry is pronounced Mirr's, that's how you can tell 😅.
I dont know how, but I wish I would have known this show was on a long time ago. Is it still on and can I see it in the USA?
I think Netflix has it for US viewers.
Derry Girls ended after three seasons. The creator felt she had gone as far as she could, especially considering the cast are a lot older than their characters. So only 19 episodes to enjoy.
Ok at first as a guy ferry girls didn’t seem like it was appealing to me but I fell in love with it
Does that sign on the bottom left say “Dairy Girls” instead of Derry? Is that Gaelic?
No it's not Gaelic 😅 I'm guessing it's an ice cream stand or something. The Irish (Gaelic) for Derry is "Doire".
hmm the title of the vid could do with being changed from 'mosaic' to 'mural'
"I'm Batman" (blurp) 😂
Shortly after Derry Girls bring Saoirse to Doctor Who to portray the brand-new attractive companion for the Fourteenth Doctor and besides film acting also must have an opportunity to do voice talents on cartoons, cgi gaming and anime with english dubs.
The USSR was also mad keen on Murals.
Think BBC would know the difference between Britain and the UK
Real Britain couldn't give a shite about the North of Ireland.
Derry = The Undertones
As someone who is Irish by ancestry and American by birth, I can relate to Derry Girls. My grandad immigrated from Ireland around the times of The Troubles. Growing up I would hear stories of the hardships of him growing up their. Yet, some cultural elements remain true, here is the U.S.
Derry is a far better city than Belfast
O i agree 100% even i want to move to River Side closed to my mentor
Joanna Lumley’s “Britain”?
"but now they're also being used in a positive way" Brits out was positive I'd have said.
Poor James didn't fare too well in the mural.
imma tell my kids this is mt. rushmore
Only 3 seasons is a crime 😭
In With a bite drinking be easier
From
I didn't no he wrot that much.
The
I like the solitude
Hopefully soon the British occupation will end and Ireland will reunify
Joanna Lumley’s ‘Britain’ ?! 🙄
Was thinking the same Conor.Surprised it wasnt changed to Londonderry Girls to suit their narrative 🙄
@@ryanshannon2011 wash your mouth out 🤣
@@ryanshannon2011 ~ the city is officially called Londonderry. London is removed to suit another narrative.
Yeah they need a bit of a geography lesson....
Hahaha the old woman is from fool me wince
this is Ireland.....
Actually Northern Ireland. Ireland lies to the South (Republic) and believe it or not, one county to the far North too.
@@dj3114 yeah....the island is Ireland...not Britain...therefore the show's title is inaccurate...simples...
@@dj3114 What island do you think Northern Ireland is on? Not Britain....
@@lsamoa So your point is that because the whole island is referred to as Ireland (geographically), therefore it is - and all the same? How many countries are in the United Kingdom? How is Scotland different than England?- it's on the same island.
@@dj3114 So according to you Northern Ireland is in Britain because Scotland is? lol. Geography not your strong suit is it. There's no debate to be had around this, love. Ireland is not Britain, and Northern Ireland is not in Britain. End of. The UK is called the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Notice how Northern Ireland is not included in Great Britain. Because it 👏is👏not👏in👏Britain. Do we need to draw you a map??
Derry / Londonderry depending on your persuasion........
Live and let live.
Ireland not Britain
What is the 'Dairy Girls' sign? A pun, or the reason the mural is where it is? 1:54
Its an ice cream 🍦 shop
Can you not recognise a pun when you see one lol 😆
@@ryanmcconnell5740 Which was there first?
@@OscarTahr the Tv show, then the mural, then the ice cream
@@ryanmcconnell5740 Thanks 👍
