Spice Girls gig sells out in seconds
The Spice Girls' reunion concert has sold out in just 38 seconds.

More than one million people registered for the gig online after being told that tickets were available to buy.

Ticketmaster boss Chris Edmonds said: "It was a dramatic moment - the sales went live and there was a huge surge as fans bombarded the lines."

The reformed girl band will take to the stage at the O2 Arena in London on December 15. Tickets for two further dates - December 16 and 18 - are being sold to fans who originally registered in June.

A fourth concert in the capital, to be held on January 2 next year, is also listed on Ticketmaster's website.

The band's world tour begins in Canada on December 2.
