I don't think they have blocked them as such ... they have ask nicely
for them not to come ... via a settings in robots.txt
Google then co-operates by not accessing the data.

Would be good to see the full terms and conditions that BBC wants to
impose and what Google does not want, or is currently unable, to comply
with.
Seems to be to do with BBC getting some user info ... so perhaps Google
is proxying the requests with the result that BBC cannot see much info
about the requester.
