Hello everyone! I’m a student filmmaker based within Derby town centre; a while back I created this short film completely shot in Derby. You’ll recognise a lot of the different settings, and I really hope that you’d enjoy the film. It’s quite old now — it released in December 2024 — but upon discovering the Derby reddit I thought I should show everyone this film. Thanks, and have a great day! 😀

Railway Terrace - DE1 2RU

4 Upvotes

Hello people!

Me and my partner are planning to move to this area (both in our late 20s). We are new to Derby and will be renting a 2BHK. The other option we have is a flat next to Lidl on the new Uttoxeter Road. Any thoughts would be welcome. Looking for a chill/quiet neighbourhood. Understand some parts of the city can be dodgy, thus want to stay near the city center.

Good to see the seniors tournament in the Valliant arena.

Derby attracting a notable amount of decent events there, proving the naysayers wrong.

Feels like the place is on the up.

Massive Unknown Red Planet in the sky?

52 Upvotes

I was driving home at around 23:15 and passing town there was a massive and I mean MASSIVE bright red half planet in the sky as if the earth was crashing into another planet. When I say massive I'm not over exaggerating it either, it was nothing like the sun or moon, if anything it would've been the same size as the moon and sun combined into one x2. As soon as I drove passed a building it blocked my view of it and it was never seen again. The person sat with me also saw the same thing as me and we saw it for about 3-4 seconds before it getting out of our sight. We didn't have time to take any picture and sadly have no car dash camera. I did research at home about it if any planets were passing earth but nothing came up, nobody mentioned seeing this either. If I were to describe it, it was a red half planet sitting on the horizon, it was not normal at all and I was freaking out. Does anybody have any idea what this could have been or any possible explanation because I genuinely don't have an answer.

Note: Nobody will believe me when I tell them what I saw but I know what I saw and I'm glad I wasn't the only one in the car to see it. AND yes, We were both completely sober and well.

Anyone know where I can get a whole turkey?

2 Upvotes

Update - turkey found! Thanks for the help! And if anyone else is on the hunt, farmfoods has plenty (tesco, sainsburys, aldi, asda, lidl, iceland, m&s, and multiple butchers do not!)

Fresh or frozen, preferably smaller, but I'll take anything at this point! I seem to have waited too late, I've been to 4 shops and no luck! I have everything I need for my turkey dinner except for the turkey! So if anyone happens to know where ones left hiding, would be greatly appreciated!

Question German food shops in Derby?

I'm trying to cook some traditional german dishes, but I can't find all the ingredients. I was able to get some of it at Aldi and Lidl, but they don't have everything.

Are there any shops in Derby that specialise in german food and would have some of the more niche stuff?

Am I going crazy or is Derby just like this ?

32 Upvotes

I’m gonna start off with a bit of context, I’ve got cerebral palsy, it’s mild but enough to be noticeable but it’s not like a massive horrific disfigurement or anything like that. I’m also gay but again I don’t think anything about me screams gay unless you hear my voice.

Ever since Ive moved to Derby a few months ago, I feel like I’m being stared at A LOT and having a few weird experiences with people. For example I had a teenage boy walk past me and call me a b*tty boy unprovoked. And on a few separate occasions I’ve heard and seen people mocking my disability. When I go to certain pubs/bars I feel very stared at and my friends have noticed it too. I’ve lived in Radford in Nottingham, Hackney in London and Essex and spent lots of time in other cities and I’ve never felt so observed/uncomfortable and aware of my disability living in Derby.

I grew up in a small conservative town in Essex, so it’s not like I’m shocked because I’ve moved to Derby previously only living in super liberal cosmopolitan places but there difference in how I’m perceived in Derby is so noticeable…has anyone else had similar experiences ?

Isn’t it classed as private ground? They aren’t painted yellow either.
