The Spice Girls played their first British as a five piece in nearly ten years last year with their lavish show at London's O2 Arena.

Stars including singer Rihanna and chef Gordon Ramsey attended, as well as Posh Spice Victoria Beckham's husband David and their three sons Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz.

Mel B told the crowd, "Thank God we're home!" with Geri - who left the group in 1998 to persue a solo career - added, "What a crowd! We love you London!"

Geri got to cheekily refer to her chequered past by amending a line to debut hit 'Wannabe' "If you really bug me then I'll say goodbye," by adding, "And I did!"

Baby Spice Emma Bunton had feared she would struggle to get through the concert after injuring her ankle at earlier dates in North America, but she soldiered through the two hour show featuring eight costume changes with a support strapped around the offending joint.
