ITV1 To Show 'THE SPICE GIRLS STORY: VIVA FOREVER' On Christmas Eve

ITV1 will be airing a documentary about the Spice Girls, subtitled 'Viva Forever', on Christmas Eve at 8.30pm.

The programme claims to tell "the definitive story of one of pop music's biggest ever all-female groups" and also follows the creative process prior to the launch of the musical Viva Forever! - based on their music, produced by Judy Craymer, and written by Jennifer Saunders.

The documentary includes contributions from the Girls themselves, some of the people who shared their experience including two of their mothers, and some of the songwriters who helped them with hits such as Wannabe, Stop and Who Do You Think You Are.

For musical theatre fans, there's also a glimpse behind the scenes at rehearsals as Viva Forever! prepares to open.
