Abstract

The purpose of this article is to explore the way everyday life is represented
in the television show Derry Girls, being a perspective that’s rarely explored in popular
culture. To do so we start with a brief reconstruction of the Irish Troubles, then we
proceed to analyze the series and the way it introduces the historical event in its narrative,
being Derry in the nineties at the background of it, which was a particularly problematic
zone in the final years of the conflict.
