NOSTALIGA: Derry and Inishowen in pictures - April 1997
In April 1997 ‘Dancie Lexie Dance’, a film, made in and around Derry by a local production company, was confirmed as in line for an Oscar nomination following its latest award; Ballymagan Celtic FC celebrated 21 years on the North West circuit - and what a hectic 21 years it was for the ‘wee’ club with the big name!; and Derry City could take the field against Shamrock Rovers at the Brandywell in the knowledge that a win or, indeed, a draw would guarantee the ‘Candy Stripes’ the National League Premier Division title for the second time in their history. As ever, the ‘Journal’ photogaphers were out and about.
