100 hours of work for two minutes of tv - meet the creator of Sky's Championship promo

Ruaidhri O’Connor is doing some quick math.

O’Connor is an assistant producer with Sky Sports and works on a variety of broadcasts ranging from darts to American Football but GAA - not surprisingly for the brother of Mayo stars Cillian and Diarmuid - is his first love.
