Script:
Oscar Pistorius will return to the stand on Thursday to testify in his own murder trial.
The paralympic athlete originally took to the witness stand on Monday, beginning by offering an emotional apology to the family of his dead girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.
On Wednesday he was cross-examined by the chief prosecutor Gerrie Nel, who urged the athlete to "take responsibility" for fatally shooting his girlfriend, telling him to look at a police photograph of the deceased Steenkamp.
Pistorius shot her through a locked bathroom door at his house on Valentine's Day last year.
Prosecutors allege he killed her after an argument.
