Final Steve Irwin Special to Air


In a final farewell to TV's beloved "Crocodile Hunter" STEVE IRWIN, both The Discovery Channel and Animal Planet will air "The Steve Irwin Tribute" and his last wildlife special, "Ocean's Deadliest" in January.

Irwin was filming "Ocean's Deadliest" in September when he was tragically killed by a stingray. Oceanographer PHILIPPE COUSTEAU, who was with Irwin during the expedition, narrates the 90 minute documentary.

"The Steve Irwin Tribute" promises an intimate look at the life of the Aussie TV star through interviews with his widow, TERRI, friends and family members who share their personal stories about the late conservationist.

The specials will be broadcast on both The Discovery Channel and Animal Planet on Sunday, January 21, starting at 8 p.m.
