Spice Girls reunite on stage for shock gig after seven years

One of the biggest bands in the world, after forming in 1994, the girl group went their separate ways in 2000, entering a hiatus to concentrate on their solo careers.

Two of the Spice Girls live in and near Oxfordshire, with Lady Beckham based near Chipping Norton in the Cotwolds, while Ms Halliwell lives close to Banbury.

Earlier this year, Posh Spice shared a photo on Instagram to her nearly 40 million followers of herself with her bandmates, Ms Halliwell, Emma Bunton and Melanie Chisholm.
