Some have had central roles Lawrie played Sophie Lancaster in Murdered For Being Different. This is a first big film role for many, for sure some have been in massive Hollywood productions with parts like "spaceport mother" or 'Margaret'. What doesn't serve them well, despite their enthusiasms and talents, is everything else.
Tallulah Grieve's Orla has a pixie cut and an air of mischief, Marli Siu's Kylah is as much of Motown as Machiavelli, Abigail Lawrie's Finnoula and Sally Messham's Manda have compelling chemistry as childhood best friends outgrowing each other, Rona Morison's Chell is, let's say, mercurial, and Eve Austin's Kay is on the edges of the group, alike but not alike. The central performances are all very good. There are lots of things that are perhaps not too obvious, but Our Ladies tends to avoid those. It's perhaps not too obvious that it's just three hours from Fort William to Edinburgh by bus, so the odds of a school choir arriving several hours early for an event starting at six and letting them wander off in the middle seem low, even if the desire is to avoid the rush hour in the big city. It's perhaps not too obvious that it must be so because the sign says 'West Highland Council' too, though there never was such a beast, it would have been Lochaber District within Highland Regional Council, and in and among the legislative changes to local government (including, importantly, section 28), it would become Highland. It's perhaps not too obvious that this would have made it the northernmost Catholic State School in Europe, dethroning Lawside (1907/2008) in Dundee.

One can grant dramatic license for this, it's important it be far from a big city and where they can see submarines. It puts it in Fort William, up near Glencoe. There's a church in Glasgow named for her, but this film (and the other works) posits a Catholic High School with attendant choir and so forth. Though the name of the institution is, one suspects, less about a connection to the Patron Saint of Haiti or any affiliation to the Redemptorists but for the opportunity to add a flavour of blasphemy to jokes about blowjobs. The Lady of Perpetual Succour is, of course, the Virgin Mary herself, an icon depicting not only the Madonna but Archangels Gabriel and Michael, instruments of crucifixion, and the infant Jesus who still looks perturbed by the goings on some five centuries and change after the first recording of the work.
