Fancy a bit of craic?! Jeanie, Marie-Louise and Pauline love the Channel 4 sit-com, Derry Girls, based in their home city. We thought it would be fun to rewatch the series, and chat about each episode in detail. You don’t have to be from Derry, or even a girl. Being a Derry Girl is a state of mind.

    Marie-Louise is being an individual on her own in New York City! She says she misses Jeanie and Pauline but distracts herself back stage with actor Matthew Broderick who is in a play with a “Derry Girls” connection! Only one of the Talking Derry Girls goes on a Road Trip this time. Marie-Louise heads to NYC, where she sees the American premier of David Ireland’s play “Ulster American” . David is a writer and actor who played Clare’s daddy Sean Devlin in “Derry Girls”. ML goes back stage to meet actors Matthew Broderick, Geraldine Hughes and Max Baker, and director Ciarán O’Reilly, at the Irish Repertory Theatre, off Broadway. https://irishrep.org Instagram - @talkingderrygirlspodcast X - @TBLderrygirls Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/talkingderrygirls/about/ http://www.thebiglight.com/talkingderrygirls Podcast https://pod.co/talking-derry-girls

  • Bonus Interview: Roisin Gallagher aka Saoirse from How To Get To Heaven From Belfast

    Bonus Interview: Roisin Gallagher aka Saoirse from How To Get To Heaven From Belfast
    Mar 11 2026
    The Talking Derry Girls spoke to Roisin after the series premiere in Belfast and wondered how she felt now that six months' work and a year in production had reached an audience. In How To Get To Heaven From Belfast she plays Saoirse the writer of a hugely successful crime drama The Murder Code. Together with Robyn and Dara she forms the trinity of friends with a shared past that they might rather forget. She is engaged to the director of her show, the very dull Seb, but can’t help flirting outrageously with the hot cop Liam. Who could blame her?

    Bonus Interview: Caoilfhionn Dunne aka Dara from How To Get To Heaven from Belfast
    Mar 11 2026
    The Talking Derry Girls caught up with Caoilfhionn prior to the red carpet premiere in Belfast. For How to Get to Heaven from Belfast she plays Dara, one of the leads, friend of Robyn and Saoirse. She is the live-in carer for her mum. She is gay but suffocated by her Catholicism. All in all she's a hot mess of friendship, faith and fear! (All similarities to the Talking Derry Girls are purely coincidental!)
