Spice video launches 'Children In Need'
The premiere of the new Spice Girls video will launch this year's Children In Need appeal tonight.
'Headlines', the girl group's first single since November 2000, will air on BBC One at 7.55pm this evening.
The premiere kicks off this year's TV charity fundraiser, which climaxes on November 16, when the band will perform the single live.
The song will be available to download from Monday and gets a physical release on November 16.
All profits from the single will go towards Children In Need.
Radio 1 unimpressed by Spice Girls track
The Spice Girls' comeback track 'Headlines' has been branded "not strong enough" by Radio 1's playlist team.
Despite the hype surrounding the girls' forthcoming world tour, their new song is receiving just one play per day on the station after bosses decided to give it C-list status.
Radio 1's Head of Music, George Ergatoudis, told The Mirror: "The opinion of the Radio 1 playlist team is that the song isn't strong enough.
"Clearly there's a huge number of Spice Girls fans out there - look at the tickets they have sold. But 'Headlines' is very disappointing. The song simply isn't strong enough.. it would have been a B-side in their heyday."
'Headlines' became available for download last weekend and it is expected to debut at number twenty in the UK singles chart after selling just over 4,900 copies.
A source close to the Spice Girls admitted: "They wanted it to be a surefire No.1 on downloads alone but it has failed to connect with the public."
