Beckham a four-part documentary series, tells the inside story of a global football star and cultural icon. David Beckham is one of the most known names on the planet, yet few people know who he really is. From his humble working-class beginnings in east London, his drive and determination to win, and the battle to find balance between ambition, love and family, David's story is one of immense ups and downs. The series takes you on that rollercoaster and builds a surprising, personal and definitive story of one of the most recognisable and scrutinised athletes of all time.

In the wake of the '98 World Cup, David faces depression, death threats and national harassment. He and Victoria welcome their first child, Brooklyn.
As David juggles family life in the limelight, friction grows between him and Sir Alex Ferguson. Later, he tries to find his footing with Real Madrid.
David and Victoria revisit his drama-filled tenure with Real Madrid, LA Galaxy, AC Milan and Paris Saint-Germain, and discuss where they're at today.
