Band tribute: Boyzone's special programme for Stephen Gately.

Boyzone: A Tribute To Stephen Gately will include a series of show-stopping Boyzone numbers and some on-off collaborations. Amid the music will be the story of Stephen’s life.

His friends were eager to get involved.

There are clips of hosts of his celeb admirers playing tribute.

The hour-long film will tell the story of Stephen’s 33 years from his childhood in Dublin to success with the band and as a solo performer.

Louis Walsh said: “Stephen would be delighted to have a night dedicated to him and I know he’ll be watching down on us all on the night a big smile on his face.”

Some of the performances were recorded at special live gig during which Boyzone and Westlife teamed up to perform No Matter What.

Other stars including Girls Aloud’s Nadine Coyle and Mika joined in.

Boyzone – Ronan Keating, Keith Duffy, Shane Lynch and Mikey Graham – will give a moving performance of both old favourites and new material.
