select young girls for a musical based on themselves.

Melanie Brown has been hinting that the gang will get back together for a few weeks, as they plan to step into television.

They are planning a How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria-style show to help find versions of themselves for a Spice Girls musical.

The project would not only be lucrative, but would also offer all the yummy mummies a respite from travelling.

Family commitments was one of the reasons they cut short their reunion tour in 2007-08.

The idea for the new show is to audition girls to play Sporty, Scary, Ginger, Posh and Baby in the West End production.

And the real Spice ladies - Melanie Chisholm, Brown, Geri Halliwell, Victoria Beckham and Emma Bunton - will sit on the panel, pass judgement and give advice to their new counterparts.

"It's a fantastic new way to broaden out the Spice franchise and cash in on their personalities, their story and their songs. The girls would have to work intensely on a TV show for a short period of time. But they then launch a musical which could run for months or even years. It will take on a life of its own. The concept could even be replicated in other countries. The sky is the limit with this one," added the source.
