Derry Girls star Siobhán McSweeney has teased a possible Sister Michael spin-off – and we’d so be here for it. The actress, 43, played Sister George Michael in three series of the much-loved sitcom. Derry Girls follows teens growing up in Londonderry in the 1990s and was a sleeper hit that built a large and committed following.
Set during the Troubles, the show was praised for offering a new perspective on the period of the IRA and loyalist ceasefires through the eyes of a group of young girls. Sister Michael is a nun and the eye-rolling headmistress at Our Lady Immaculate College in Derry, Northern Ireland, and she was a fan favourite thanks to her sarcasm and witty comments, particularly towards her job. She was definitely a more realistic nun, forever making sharp remarks towards the student body and faculty – oh, and she was a black belt in judo, of course.
After receiving a nomination at this year’s TV Baftas, Irish star Siobhán told Metro. co. uk that she’s all for Sister Michael getting more screentime.
However, it’s not a priority. ‘There’s a few more adventures I would love to have first,’ she began. ‘It’s a great compliment that people want to see more of her.
’On whether she would she want to revisit the character in the future, she admitted: ‘I’m thinking of today being the goodbye turn, the end of that chapter and it’s changed my life immensely. ‘I’ll always have her when I look in the mirror, but I think it’s time to move on to more adventures. ’Siobhán was nominated in the best female comedy category, along with Daisy May Cooper (Am I Being Unreasonable?), Diane Morgan (Cunk on Earth), Lucy Beaumont (Meet The Richardsons), Natasia Demetriou (Ellie & Natasia), and Taj Atwal (Hullraisers).
