Spice Girls pull out of Come Dancing

The Spice Girls have been forced to pull out of their scheduled appearance on 'Strictly Come Dancing' after Emma Bunton sprained her ankle.
The 31-year-old singer picked up the injury when she took a tumble on stage at the Las Vegas leg of the group's tour.
Bunton initially thought that she would be well enough to perform during the dance show but her injury has not healed yet.
A BBC spokesperson said: "The Spice Girls performance on BBC One's 'Strictly Come Dancing' - due for transmission on Sunday December 16 - has been postponed as Emma Bunton has sprained her ankle badly and will not be able to perform."
A spokesperson for the Spice Girls said that the singer's injury would not affect any of the group's upcoming concerts.  
The Spice Girls will now reportedly perform on the final show of the 'Strictly Come Dancing' series on Saturday week.
