A new BBC documentary takes a unique approach to profiling David Beckham by focusing on ten iconic photographs from his life. The programme, airing on BBC Two at 9pm, explores how Beckham has navigated being constantly in the public eye since his teenage years.
The documentary begins in 1986, when a photographer captured Beckham's triumph in a national football skills competition. From there, the photo album includes images of Beckham in a sarong, with his wife Victoria Beckham (a Spice Girl), and on the cover of a gay magazine.
The concept aims to provide fresh insight into the footballer's life and career, highlighting his awareness of being photographed and his ability to cause a sensation. The documentary promises to delve into these iconic moments and their cultural impact.
