David Beckham looked as though he was having an awkward chat with Clarkson's Farm star Gerald Cooper as they were seen in deep conversation at The Chequers pub in Chipping Norton on Saturday night. Fans of Jeremy Clarkson's Amazon Prime show will know Gerald is well known for his barely audible speech thanks to his thick West Country accent.

And while viewers and Jeremy himself struggle to understand the fan favourite on a regular basis, it appeared that the Beckham's were having difficulty too as they were spotted concentrating hard after bumping into Gerald. The megastar couple had swapped their swanky, Michelin-starred restaurants for the cosy surroundings of the Cotswolds countryside pub, where they were seen enjoying a quiet lunch.
