Usually broadcast exclusively on US channel CBS, the lingerie giant has decided to branch out this year and give fans across the pond a chance to oggle their Angels - including Miranda Kerr, Alessandra Ambrosio and Doutzen Kroes - too. The show, which was filmed in New York on November 7, also features performances by Rihanna, Bruno Mars and Justin Beiber.

The news was revealed by Karlie Kloss, one of the show's stars, in an interview with vogue.co.uk. "I am so excited to share the VS show with all of the Victoria's Secret fans in the UK," she said. "Last year, I was in London when the show aired, and I had to watch it online since it wasn't available on television. I'm happy that all of the UK fans will be able to watch the show."

The show has been broadcast on US TV since 2001, but until now British fans have had to resort to YouTube clips to get a piece of the action. It's rather fitting that this is the year it makes its way over to us considering the brand opened its first UK stores in London this summer, and also included three British models, Cara Delevingne, Lily Donaldson and Jourdan Dunn, in this year's show.

The show is set to air in the US tomorrow night so it's safe to assume that it will also air here then too. Further details are under wraps, but we should know exactly when and on which channel you'll be able to see the show in the next 24 hours so we'll keep you updated...
