Saturday night Spice 'in demand'

The Spice Girls at the height of their powers
Both the BBC and ITV are eyeing the Spice Girls as big ratings winners in their ongoing Saturday night ratings war, a tabloid report claims.

The Sunday Mirror claims the two broadcasters want the reformed Spice Girls to appear on their biggest programmes – ITV's The X Factor and the BBC's Strictly Come Dancing.

Both have previously featured guest appearances by big-name stars and adding the Spice Girls – who announced their decision to reunite for a concert tour earlier this year - would certainly prove a worthy addition to the list.

But, according to the Mirror, the shows are such "bitter rivals" that Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton, Victoria Beckham, Mel B and Mel C could only appear on one of the two.

Last year Baby Spice Emma Bunton – who now has a baby of her own – competed on Strictly Come Dancing and so may prefer the latter.

A BBC source told the newspaper: "The girls could perform a song or simply come down for the evening and give a few comments on the performances of the celebrity dancers."

"We would love them to make an appearance in some capacity."End of story
