US broadcaster Fox plans to air an interview with O.J. Simpson in which the former football star discusses "how he would have committed" the slayings of his ex-wife and her friend, for which he was acquitted in a widely-watched trial.

The two-part interview, titled "O.J. Simpson: If I Did It, Here's How It Happened," will air on November 27 and 29, the TV network said.

Simpson has agreed to an "unrestricted" interview with book publisher Judith Regan, Fox said.

"O.J. Simpson, in his own words, tells for the first time how he would have committed the murders if he were the one responsible for the crimes," the network said in a statement.

"In the two-part event, Simpson describes how he would have carried out the murders he has vehemently denied committing for over a decade."

The interview will air days before Simpson's new book, "If I Did It," goes on sale on November 30.

The book, published by Regan, "hypothetically describes how the murders would have been committed."

In a video clip on the network's Web site, an off-screen interviewer says to Simpson: "You wrote 'I have never seen so much blood in my life.'"

"I don't think any two people could be murdered without everybody being covered in blood," Simpson responds.

Simpson, who now lives in Florida, was acquitted in a criminal trial of the 1994 killings of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ronald Goldman.

He was later found liable in 1997 in a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the Goldman family.

Since the trials Simpson has never been far from the news. In 1998 he pretended to stab BBC interviewer Ruby Wax at the conclusion of an interview, and in 2001 he was not guilty of burglary and battery in Florida.

Messages left with Simpson and his attorney Yale Galanter were not immediately returned.
