One of the UK's most famous figures David Beckham and one of the UK's most iconic landmarks - The White Cliffs of Dover - have come together for one night only, as part of a very sexy makeover.

Although the White Cliffs have been greeting visitors for centuries, last night three images David Beckham, wearing only his pants, were projected across them; giving visitors travelling into the UK quite an eyefull.

The stunt was part of a PR drive by retailer H&M, who launched Beckham's body wear line on the high-street in February.

In a timely move, it also happened just in time for any visitors heading from France to London for the Olympic Games to witness; footballer Beckham was instrumental in the bid to bring the Games to London for 2012.

Although many would argue that the Cliffs are a natural beauty in their own right, perhaps others would like to see the projection become a permanent fix - the stunt certainly seemed very popular on twitter where, last night, the hashtag #beckhamsbriefsofdover was trending.
