Yes, agreed, also because the BBC is so 'queen's English', it tickles me to see how familiar words are used it a very different way, which sometimes changes the nuance a bit which can be funny. I remember i was once reading a news report in an Indian publication but written in english about some terrible crime that had been committed by "some rascals" which made me laugh, despite the awful context, because it sounded like some toddlers had been marauding round - clearly accepted use in India as it was a credible publication, I was laughing about what it made me think of rather than the language used.
