THE NAME GAME

They were tired of Bond Street and Bluewater, but the Beckhams' migration to greener pastures hasn't quite gone to plan. Launching their new life with a 'real-life' documentary that bombed and expecting to be greeted with open arms, the gruesome twosome have now been given the accolade of their very own American moniker.

The plastic imports' endearing new name is “a fag and his hag”. Strong words from a west coast community that worships at the shrine of Paris Hilton, metrosexuality and preened hardbodies. It begs us to ask, what went wrong?

It couldn't have been their unerring arrogant confidence that they’d take the witless Americans by storm with their quaint British charm? We're torn between a) laughing heartily at the joke, and b) hoping that America will repent and give them a belated warm welcome.

Not really. We're enjoying the Atlantic distance. Tsouni
