Deadly 60 - CBBC - BBC

Steve spots otters with Terry Nutkins, and falls prey to the incredible peregrine falcon.

Children's wildlife documentary. Scouring the UK for lethal beauties, Steve goes otter-spotting with Terry Nutkins and meets with the UK's biggest spider.

The action shifts to Steve's home turf as the Deadly 60 team scour the UK in search of its lethal beauties.

Terry Nutkins lends a helping hand in spotting otters and tells Steve the story of how he lost two fingers to one of these creatures. A bit of pond-dipping reveals a whole host of the nasties ready to bite, maim and generally eat each other, and Steve gets a chance to meet with the biggest spider in the UK. 

Then it's off for a high-speed chase as Steve plays pigeon for the afternoon and nearly loses his head whilst being hunted by the fastest animal on the planet, the truly incredible peregrine falcon.
