An episode of UK's Big Brother was edited after contestant Ali Bromley wore a T-shirt with a watermelon design resembling Israel, which sparked complaints of anti-Israel sentiment. The Campaign Against Antisemitism reported the incident to Ofcom, leading to the episode's removal from ITVX. It was later re-uploaded with the T-shirt replaced by a plain black design. The show's producers apologized, stating they were unaware of the T-shirt's implications.
