Oscar and Reeva doccie to air in March

New York - The desire to produce a quick documentary on Olympic runner Oscar Pistorius and the death of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp has led to a new partnership between two television networks.

The Investigation Discovery Network will premiere a one-hour special titled Beauty & The Blade Runner on Sunday 3 March in the US.

The TV special will delve into the South African athlete's life and his role in the shooting death of Steenkamp.

ID is making the special with the help of NBC News's Peacock Productions.

ID even coined a new phrase to describe the quick specials, calling them instamentaries.

People close to both Pistorius and Steenkamp feature in the special, which examines evidence in the case brought forward so far.
