David Beckham reveals his favourite FRIENDS episode, says 'I watch it to lighten mood'

English football legend David Beckham has revealed his favourite episode from the popular American sitcom Friends, which ran for nearly 10 years and is still making millions in profits off television rights. The former England forward, while making a guest appearance on the show, said that his favourite episode from the television show is ought to be the one where the cast members get ready for an important function at Ross' museum. Beckham said that whenever he is feeling down or is away from his family, he watches the episode to light up the mood.  

"Ross is hurrying everyone up coz he has a huge speech to make and he’s nervous. When Chandler goes to the toilet, Joey sits in Chandler’s chair and when he comes back it all escalates! It’s one of those episodes that when I’m away and I’m feeling a little bit low, I put it on and it makes me smile - almost to the point of crying," Beckham said.

The second episode from the third season shows everyone gathered at Monica and Rachel's apartment so they could leave together for the function at Ross' museum. A series of events leads to everyone leaving the apartment except for Rachel and Ross, who indulge in kissing for the final five seconds of the episode before credits appear.
