Saw this today, Alicia Castro the Argentinian Ambassador to Britain is demanding an apology from the BBC and Top Gear producers for their insults to her country.
Well, when her country apologises for invading British sovereign territory then perhaps, just perhaps, we may apologise by saying it was just a joke - get a sense of humour. The cheek of the woman !j

    well it was deliberate and provocative so no wonder she's annoyed. also it's not like the British haven't invaded countries themselves in the past.

    Do any of you have a clue what Argentina puts the Falkland Islands through on its crusade to continue to bully them?

    I suggest you go do some reading beyond Heat magazine.

    Well, they have 'insulted' just about every country on the map so she's going to have to put her name at the bottom of a very long list.

    I think the Mexican ambassador is still awaiting his apology as well. :D

    Who was that addressed to ? I'm certainly not defending Argentina As far as I'm concerned they just intend to stir up as much trouble as they can with the UK and use the Falkland Islands as an excuse. They should be told by the U.N. to butt out.

    Well as it concerns Top Gear controversy I thought this was the right place for it to be.
    If you want it moved then ask a moderator to move it

    So was their futile invasion in 1982.

    Getting her knickers in a twisty over this is nothing more than shifting the spotlight from her own ineptitude.
