David Beckham shoots new Ad
Update - Scans from Arena Magazine in the gallery.
David Beckham was in the Scilly Isles yesterday filming a new Adidas ad with Steven Gerrard and he also took some time out to make some lucky locals days
In between showing off his skills, Becks thrilled locals by signing endless autographs. He also posed for photos as he cradled tots such as year-old Jacob Mallon, Sophie Garrett's six-month-old boy Samson and Melanie Downie's four-month son Oliver.You can read more here and also here. Photos in the gallery.
The England ace also let kids, including Clive's granddaughter Bethany Thomas, 12, join him in a kickabout.
Ben Denton, 26, who came from the neighbouring island of Bryher to watch, said: "He was taking freekicks and having a laugh with them. There was even one kid in goal trying to stop them."
The Scilly Isles, nearly 30 miles off Land's End, were bathed in warm autumn sunshine yesterday. Before long Becks - on his first visit - had fallen in love with St Mary's as much as it had fallen in love with him.
He said: "It's an amazing and beautiful place, especially with weather like this. I'm enjoying myself and everyone's been so friendly.
"I'm tempted to come back with the family - it's private and the kids would love it."
Becks also stopped by the local radio station - the smallest radio station in the world - to give an interview to presenter Keri Jones, who said "He came across as really nice, a really down-to-earth guy," more here. Can't wait to see the finished commercial!

Hello Anna,
A couple of days ago i saw a picture of David and Victoria, Victoria kinda falling asleep on David's shoulder.
Do you know which picture I'm talking about?
I can't find it anymore... Did you take it off the site?
Thanks

Hi Laurance, sorry I'm not sure which picture you mean. I haven't deleted any photos in the last few days. I do move the photos out of the today gallery once in a while when I remember lol and put them in their "permanent gallery" now by the sounds of that pic it could be in 'out and about' or I could have moved it to magazines if it was a scan of a pic from a magazine or it might be in screen caps if it was a screen cap... but it would be one of those I think.
Auntie D - you know I don't know how to spell the names of Liverpool players :)) just kidding!

Thanks for the scans!

LOL, Anna, I was very impressed that you included the photo with the young man in the LFC kit -- although as soon as I saw it I thought it might be why Becks is laughing so hard in that group!!!
All in fun, he and Gerrard have only had good things to say about each other as England teammates. Here's hoping they're both fit for November, and any benevolent twist of fate England might enjoy beyond that.

He's such a gentleman. I think that majority of the guys in this world can take lessons from him, he's near perfection.
Thanks for providing all the pictures as well Anna! He's just too cute with the kids. I want my future husband to be like him.
Ugh out of the thousands entries that I know the site will recieve, I highly doubt I'll win...but it doesn't hurt to try.

what I put up a pic of someone in a LFC kit *shock horror* must find and delete!! Seriously, I'm really hoping to see Becks line up with Gerrard later this month too :)
