Derry Girls exhibition ‘mindblowing’, say friends who inspired show’s characters

Childhood friends of Derry Girls creator Lisa McGee have spoken of the “mindblowing” success of the show ahead of the opening of a new exhibition.

The new Derry Girls immersive exhibition, which opens to the public in the Tower Museum in Londonderry on Monday evening, features props and set pieces from the Bafta-winning sitcom which follows five teenagers living in Derry in the mid-1990s during the final years of the Troubles.

Fans of the show will be able to view parts of the original sets, including the Quinn living room and kitchen, as well as props like Spice Girls costumes from season three, the Child of Prague statue and Ma Mary’s rosary beads.
