Joe Lycett gives baffling update on David Beckham row

The comedian, 34, called the retired England captain a “disgrace” for signing a multimillion-pound deal to be the face of the Qatar World Cup.

After Beckham failed to step away from his involvement with Qatar, which has harsh anti-LGBTQ laws, Joe filmed himself shredding £10,000 in cash in protest.


He later revealed that the money was fake and part of a publicity stunt.


Now, in an interview with TV Mag, the Travel Man host has revealed a surprising update about his spat with Beckham.

He said: “I’ve started having dreams about David. “I dream that he’s with Victoria and they’re on the escalator in the Birmingham Bullring [& Grand Central shopping centre].


“She gives me short shrift and he says something like: ‘We need to go away now.’

“I heard from his people and the statement we had on our show, Joe Lycett vs Beckham: Got Your Back, at Christmas, but I’ve not heard anymore from him.

“I thought we would get a bit of press because it was deliberately designed to get press, but I was surprised that it was news globally.

“We were on Brazilian telly, CNN ran with it and The Hollywood Reporter - it just became ridiculous.

“But it was amazing and great that we’d managed to raise the level of awareness that we did with that stunt.”


The revelation comes as Joe prepares to launch his new Channel 4 show, Late Night Lycett, that’s said to have a “whiff of TFI Friday about it”.

The series is broadcast from his home city of Birmingham, where Joe will be joined by celebrity guests and a live audience.

Late Night Lycett begins on Friday March 31 at 10pm on Channel 4.
