The producers of the Australian version of Big Brother have apologised to Mexico after contestants threw liquid-filled balloons at its flag.

The Mexican government sent protest letters to the TV programme and the Australian authorities on Wednesday, saying the incident was "offensive".

Did they say what the liquid was?
I feel that in order to judge exactly how offensive it actually was I would need to know what liquid they filled the balloons with!

Well although that is not acceptable at least slime is not the worst thing they could have filled their balloons with.
I mean things like petrol and the other nasty thing spring to mind.

Slime although unpleasant is not really really offensive.

They should not have done it and they should apologise though.
