- To celebrate The National Lottery’s 25th Birthday, we explore (with help from #DerryGirls star Saoirse-Monica Jackson) how its investment in heritage has transformed Northern Ireland’s second city.
Over the last 25 years The National Lottery Heritage Fund has invested a huge £26million in heritage projects across Derry~Londonderry. This has undoubtedly helped it to be named as the first UK City of Culture in 2013 and in making that year such a success.

“Sure if she’s not into walls she’s not into walls Erin love”
I was waiting for someone to comment that 😂👍🏻
Damm British channel 4 shows NI people in a bad light, 'Derry Girls' pokes fun at people in Derry and makes them all look trashy...
@@-jank-willson what the fuck? Have you seen series such as the imbetweeners or peep show?
Im literally from Asia, and Derry is class. bye@@-jank-willson
@@-jank-willson A show written by a woman born and raised in Derry based on her life growing up in Derry? You're a dick.
So that's how she does the accent so well 😂😂😂
There's no way it's just where she's from like I'm from clare and I have a clare Irish accent lol
She doesn’t need to pretend 😂
Heard her say in a interview she was so excited to play a role in her own accent. She never expected that to happen.
Her and who play Michelle are both from Derry arent they and who plays orla is Irish. It's just who plays claire that fakes an accent (I think)
@@hellanistpunk3282 The actress who plays Orla is from Dublin and the actress who plays Claire is from Galway so they're both faking the Derry accent.
She took us to see the walls. Tourists love the walls!
Amanda J and they are nothing short of spectacular!
@@c0ronariu5 If she's not in'tae walls she's not in'tae walls, Erin love.
The most complete set of town walls in Europe.
@@mcbusted1985
What do you mean by complete set of town walls?
I think people love and hate walls but nature hates them.
It astounds me how she can bend her lovely face into such hilarious expressions in Derry Girls.
I was just thinking the same thing!! The face she makes when she finds out about the plumber "hitting on" her mom is hilarious!!
as someone from Derry, I'm impressed with how good she made it look
Alannah McMahon 😂😂
😂😂😂
Just because it is familiar does not mean it is mundane :) I've had to tell myself that about my hometown
It does have some excellent architecture but the streets looked somewhat grimy. Do people still chew gum there or are the splots on the ground historic?
Alannah McMahon I live in Donegal but I love Derry
I honestly just watched this because of Saoirse
Can't overstate the pull this series had. I'm a 33 year old man from Germany, and for the three days it took me to watch Derry Girls I was entirely invested into what these 5 were up to. What a great series with heart.
And while our mostly catholic city of 300.000 had its sectarian violence end 300 years ago, we too have city walls and gates and they're all the rage with the tourists lol
It started with a jean jacket and now pink hair, give the wooden spoon to Ma Mary 😂
She's expressin' her indivijiality!
Douglas Schramm Lmfao!
@@txdrmr but she cant do it all by herself !!!
"Derry Girls" fan from Canada.
I wonder if the popularity of the show made for an increase in tourism in Derry. I know if I ever made it over to Ireland, I would HAVE to stop there. Looks like a lovely city.
Bruce Van Tol lol always wondered how Canadians felt towards Ireland
Ed Devlin we love Ireland and think it is extremely beautiful and rich in history 😘🥰 Ireland is my dream destination for vacation!!
Northen Ireland but I don’t really care if you say Ireland or Derry because f*ck it
First name Last name Sure
Look up the Toronto Circus Riot.
She’s literally Erin
MYYear12Life T she is Erin 🤦
MYYear12Life T no shit?
She means she acts very similar to the character. Obviously it’s her who plays Erin, but the way she behaves is very close to the way Erin does
"Erin showed me some old walls"
Derry girls is one of the best comedy shows seen in years! Cheers from Bucharest, Romania😊
I just got back from Derry, a week ago, visited many places from the video. The video brought back so many wonderful memories. Beautiful city, amazing people and culture. So much history there, I hope I get to visit again in the future! Got a chance to see the Derry Girl mural as well 😭😭
I love to death that she's still coming across as down to earth.
Love the Derry Girls! Loved my visit to Derry a couple of years ago. I was camping just outside of town. I asked the young guy mowing the lawn, "The border's around here somewhere?"
"Oh , just over in the shuck." Less that 15 meters. Though he wasn't around back in the day, he pointed out the British outpost, the dragon's teeth border check point up on the road. The city is great, the Free Derry Museum is a must see to anyone who's ever peacefully protested. Beautiful city, friendly people. (Even the Bogside teenagers trying on their best middle school menacing look were a treat. I'm from Detroit (during the Troubles we had the bigger body count than all of the North) but I tried to act a bit menaced. You can walk everywhere, people are friendly and any nuns you see won't be armed with rulers.
Bless her, went from a normal st Cecilia girl to having a mural in the town and getting pics taken, amazin thing to be done for derry
Saw this while scrolling on Facebook while watching Derry girls. I've seen the show so many times. You girls are amazing. I hope you guys get along as good in real life as you do on the show. I had a friend growing up who was 100% a Michelle. This wee Canadian loves it. I'd watch the show until you girls are raising your own teens. Love from Canada!
those walls were nothing short of spectacular!
I have ancestors from N Ireland, but don't know anything about them. I watched Derry Girls because it was recommended on a website, and five minutes in I was laughing harder than I have in years, honestly. The best acting, writing etc ever! Somehow it just turned out to be the perfect combination of acting, writing, and directing. And it sure put N Ireland on the map! Love Saoirse and the whole gang!
What’s with the N?
It was just ireland at the time your ancestors left
Here's a Derry Girls fan from Chile. This show show us the beautiful Derry, and Ireland of course. Is amazing how irish culture got similaries with ours. For example the language: Irish english must be one of the hardest accent to understand, as chilean spanish.
i'm a really big fan of Derry girls. love all the narratives, the characters, Derry accents and all about Northern Ireland. great love from Korea. waiting for the season3!!!
I only watch this because I want to hear the accent 😅 😆
One of the dislikes is from Katya😂
Her name sounds like cat.
How can you not love this girl.
lovely to see Saoirse-Monica Promoting her home town.
Saoirse is such a lovely person.
I’ve met this class girl in Belfast last year and she’s just the best ever ❤️ real great craic too 🍀🍀
Great show and cast. Saoirse is the greatest. I play the show while going to bed just to heir them trip out. can't wait for season 3
This was a great show. Love all the characters in it.
I was in Ireland about 3 weeks ago and we took a day trip to Belfast. That day trip stuck with me well after I got back, and I had to look at every video about the troubles and Northern Ireland in general. Derry Girls was part of my research. I really connected with this show. It was great.
Interesting how she pronounces her name as Seer-sha while Saoirse Ronan claims her name is pronounced Sur-sha.
Gunnhild Edwards all lot Irish names are pronounced differently in different counties
Northern vs Republic accent. Jackson is from the North and Ronan's family comes from the south. :)
They have two completely different accents
The Carlow accent and the Derry accent are not remotely similar, so they're not!
The vast majority of people in Ireland would pronounce it Seer-sha, very few people would pronounce it Sur-sha.
She showed us THE walls. And they are nothing less than spectacular!!!
i love her outfit: the green jacket, converse, wide legged pants and that awesome hair
Jesus Christ she is gorgeous
Bucketlist to visit Ireland and Scotland. Derry looks like a beautiful city!
The city walls are glorious
Derry is the hometown of the famous punk band The Undertones!
Just love Derry Girls, hope it's back on soon.
When Erin finished showing me her poetry. She showed me some old walls🙄
Home is always the best place in the world !!!
My sister-in-law is from New York City and everyday when she was here in Derry City with my brother she would hear the locals greet each other with "Whad aboud yee? Eventually she asked me for an explanation of what they were saying and when I told her she explained to me that she thought everyone was saying "Auto Budgie"! She thought that it was some kind of strange local reverence for Budgies.
This how erin take the Russian girl around the city
Ukranian!
Hahah this video's shot from Katia's POV.
Why does your mother make this sound?
She brilliant. Found her through Derry girls.
No way??? What are the chances?!
Derry is beautiful and interesting to visit! Very friendly people!
She looks beautiful with pink hair.
she seems very nice i enjoyed this
It's very generous of the National Lottery to donate so much money to good causes, but then the amount they make from the tickets more than covers the cost of the prizes.
This is such a great video! 'Derry Girls' inspired me to come visit Derry a couple months ago. I loved it! I just posted a video from my trip.
I love Derry. Looking forward to going back soon.
That's my home town!!😜 I did work experience in the playhouse, then moved to the Nerve Centre where I learned to play the drums, but Derry Bytes was my hangout , jeez Bytes was the place to be!😅 I miss being a teen in derry, being a growed up sucks sometimes 😟
Best place in the world, and not just because my Mummy lives there. x
It was cool going home and seeing the mural!🥰
derry is probably my favorite city I have visited in Ireland.. got the walking tour was great
Doire abú!
northern ireland
@@adammagill930 Ireland is Ireland, North or South.
@@ailinos no its not
@@adammagill930 I did not say the republic of Ireland... Ireland is the island of Ireland.. I hope you are not from northern Ireland.
Absolutely loved her acting in season 3 and liked this walk also
I love her
Aye Derry is class
Derry really is a special place.
I didnt know ireland is so beautiful... thanks for making this video
Derry is in Northern Ireland, but I get your point. I drove to Moville, Ireland a couple of times which is about 20 miles North of Derry, but oddly, you go back into the Republic again as Co. Donegal is not in NI.
When she was walking down the "revitalized hotspot" that bridge in the back was where orla danced on in season 3
she's so cute
Northern Ireland is on my places-to-visit for 2023.
Shes so cute omg
I was fortunate to visit amazing Derry this summer. In Bogside our tour guide told us how his brother was shot to death by the British army on Bloody Sunday and the British government has been covering for the murderer ever since.
Love this Video, Derry Looks so cool, so refreshing from the towns here in Canada, there's no history here like you have there.
On a side note, is anybody else reading the articles about when season 3 is coming to Netflix and catching the hints, there's hints all over the place that Derry Girls, is gonna get A MOVIE !!! Every article I read says something along the lines, of season 3 will be it on this platform, or in this sense of Derry Girls, or like as far as we know it, or who knows if one or all of the characters will be back in another fashion... Like Are You Kidding Me, Just Tell us There's Gonna Be A Movie okay!!! We are Dying to Know Ladies! And James. Lol common. spill the tea!
From Belfast; live in Cork; love Derry.
Can't wait to see the city again, we loved it last year
I love you girl
I really thought she was like 18 years old, she looks soo young, she better share some of her secrets.
Derry has class aye!
I want to know Derry someday! 🤜🇧🇷
Love Derry she's beautiful
omg we have the same coat! i feel SO COOL
Where did you get it?
@@nidebau it was from asos in 2018
ASOS slave labour, and they were guing t shit so set a fire deliberately t get insurance money.
I showed you THE walls... THE city walls... And they were nothin short of spectacular
Derry looks great.
But it’s not all that great
Just come back from Derry it's a amazing city .
Yes it is.
The city walls are nothing short of spectacular
oi why you copy?
She's beautiful
Saoirse-Monica Jackson
I LOVE YOU
Yassss would love to go there someday 😍
Stay in the city outside of its mad 😂
I like her
If she’s not into Walls Erin , she’s not into Walls!
Love from Britain beautiful lady
For some reason I didn't think she was actually from Derry
I'd like a tour of Derry that went into some of the places and Bars in Derry that wouldn't make for family viewing unless the people got a wee sub for their smiles and craic.
Derry is a wonderful city. Loved visiting and can’t wait to go back.
Love the hair color
Love this! So beautiful.
Looks a great place to visit.
St Columbs Cathedral, the oldest and most Historic building in the city was not even mentioned.
Also St Agustines Church, and which she walked past wasn't mentioned.
I WONDER WHY???? 🤔 🤔
Love the tour Kakoyin!
I have to visit Derry after the pandemic over!!
American fan here!
Small island, but various pronunciations, and accents. Like Roisin, it varies how is pronounced.
Not really no. Always somewhere around Row (as in boat) Sheen (as in Charlie Sheen). It only changes based on how the region pronounces the sounds
I loved this place!
Fan from England shes beautiful Derry girls is funny
Not that it’s important but I think she is so pretty!
I'd visit. Once Covid is somewhat calmed down.
Would love to visit Derry one day.
As times like this when Doctor Who got the showrunner and the 14th Doctor we need you to portray a graceful and attractive companion to ride in the TARDIS to make TARDIS team great again and also need a composer believe to be Murray Gold or try import a Japanese classical composer Toru Fuyuki ahead of next year anniversary dedicating to Kings Charles III reigning era.
My science teacher is from derry
😂😂🤦🏼♀️
@Sredni Vashtar mine either
@@mf6598 neither is mine
"if she's not into walls she's not into walls" 😂
