A series of tongue-in-cheek adverts for Eurostar depicting stereotypical images of British life have prompted complaints that they are offensive.
The images, promoting services to Brussels, have gone up on hoardings and posters in four Belgian cities.
One which shows a half-naked skinhead relieving himself in a teacup, received five complaints from British people in Belgium, a Eurostar spokeswoman said.
She said the firm had apologised to them, but the adverts would remain.
The BBC also received several e-mails criticising the advertisements.
The spokeswoman for Eurostar said the campaign had become popular and was specifically for Belgium.
