The Spice Girls have managed to grab a million-pound advertising deal with the supermarket chain Tesco. The ad features the Spice Girls running around the store avoiding each other as – gasp! – they’ve all decided to buy gifts in the same store.

Even less convincing than the ah, “plot”, is the girls’ acting skills. So much so you would be forgiven for thinking that it was actually an advert for robot versions of the girls.

“Hi - I’m looking for some presents to surprise some girlfriends,” says RoboPosh. Now there’s an idea. RoboPosh does your shopping, cooks your meals, cleans your house and you don’t even need to feed her, allowing you to sit back and put your feet up. Just perfect for the run-up to Christmas. We think it’s a winner - certainly better than the new single. Take a look at our favourite shots from the ad.
