David Beckham thrilled 60 people at Westfield Stratford City yesterday when he popped into an Olympics-themed photo booth in the shopping centre.

Members of the public were showing their support for British athletes by dressing in Team GB kits and posing for pictures in Adidas's Take The Stage booth.

They were imitating the Team GB competitors, who've been photographed in a similar way throughout this month.

But a lucky few were left in shock as David, 37, appeared, with one young boy so overwhelmed that he burst into tears.

'It was a unique experience for me and the people who took part and there were some great reactions when we surprised them in the photo booth,' says David.

'I always love coming back to London and the activity was a great opportunity for me to get involved in the Adidas Take The Stage campaign and get behind Team GB.'
