It’s possible you have already been made aware, but in case we have any 45-second-old babies reading, or recent coma departees, or perhaps that man who was trapped in a cave in Turkey for days, there is a documentary series newly available for streaming on Netflix all about the career of David Beckham. It is called Beckham, and it’s very good.

Over almost 300 minutes, Beckham doesn’t cover absolutely everything in the life and times of Goldenballs – I could have done with an extra episode on how he was apparently going to star opposite Steve Martin in the Noughties remake of The Pink Panther, or those leaked emails – but it gives it a good go.
