Channel 4 viewers expressed significant dissatisfaction with the broadcaster's new documentary, "Beckham: Family at War - UNTOLD," which aired on Wednesday night. The program delved into the widely publicized feud within the Beckham family, a dispute that intensified last week following a six-page statement from Brooklyn Beckham.

Brooklyn, 26, publicly declared he was severing ties with his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, alleging they had attempted to undermine his relationship with his wife, Nicola Peltz. This public revelation sparked widespread online discussion, memes, and analyses. Consequently, Channel 4's decision to produce a prime-time documentary on the matter drew sharp criticism.
