Now, another opportunity has dropped on to its lap and the city isn’t found wanting. Apropos the beloved sitcom, which was the most popular ever produced in Northern Ireland, a new Derry Girls experience is set to open in July in the Tower Museum.
Already possessing two specially designated reserves – one in south Kerry and another in west Mayo – that offer exceptionally dark night skies, we have now another. The OM Dark Sky Observatory in the Sperrin Mountains is the latest location to receive the coveted designation as a Dark Sky Reserve. The first of its kind in Northern Ireland, its minute levels of light spill provide excellent opportunities for stargazing.

My fear was another tiresome sporting museum filled with moth-eaten jerseys, ancient boots and grainy photographs. I needn’t have worried. More than €30 million has been invested here, and it shows.
