Hell for Leather: The Story of Gaelic Football
Season 1 Episode 3 of 4
The game's profound connection to people and place, focusing on the fiercely contested Ulster final, which both divided and unified, and how Meath drew inspiration from its mythic past to finally overcome Dublin, aided by Seán Boylan's legendary potions and lotions. The programme also recalls the time Mick O'Dwyer committed near heresy by coaching Kildare to beat his home country of Kerry and reach the 1988 All-Ireland final
Hell for Leather: The Story of Gaelic Football airs on BBC One Northern Ireland HD at 10:40 PM, Tuesday 11 November. (Subtitles, subtitles, new.)
