Spice Girls step up for Strictly Come Dancing

The Spice Girls performance on BBC One's Strictly Come Dancing – due for transmission on Sunday 16 December – was postponed after Emma Bunton sprained her ankle and was unable to perform.

James Blunt instead performed for the semi-finals on Sunday night.

Emma, Geri, Mel B, Melanie C and Victoria will now perform their classic hit 2 Become 1 for the Strictly final on Saturday 22 December.

Strictly Come Dancing's own fabulous professional dancers will still perform to the track for the final.

The Spice Girls are no strangers to Strictly Come Dancing.

Back in 2006 Emma Bunton reached the semi-finals of Strictly Come Dancing with partner Darren Bennett. She was the last female contestant to leave the competition after wowing the audience and the judges from the start.

Mel B came second in the hit US version of the show Dancing With The Stars in November of this year.
