Recently, the show’s main characters – Erin, Orla, Clare, Michelle and James – were painted in a mural in Derry city centre to celebrate the show’s return.

The mural was developed by Channel 4’s in-house creative agency 4Creative, which is working with Derry not-for-profit social enterprise group UV Arts, which uses street art as a tool for social change.

It can be found on the gable end of the Badgers Bar building in Derry city.
