Will the real Sister Michael please stand forward? Christmas is a time of magical dreams, imaginings and inexplicable happenings. During a recent pre-festive visit to their hometown the TDG's found themselves thrown off course by a chance collision of events that truly was a gift.

They found themselves immersed in a story that started back in 1968 when a young nun requested a copy of the latest Scorsese.

That nun was Mary Pat Kelly, she has written the book “Martin Scosese :A Journey”… and her Derry connections are off the scale

She is Martin Scorsese’s real life Sister Michael. "Those Nuns"

Happy Christmas.
