I do wonder if the person who made the wikipedia version copied it from a programme, or worse - the original uploaded was a BBC employee who made it and thought it was good enough.
Hmm that doesn't look quite right but it looks more like it's been squashed a bit, rather than having the tell-tale thin typeface and C too high up.
There probably wasn't a vector graphic version of the BBC logo online at the time, and Wikipedia has always prioritised vector graphic versions of logos rather than JPEGs, PNGs etc, so I honestly think that's where it originated. Made with good intentions, but then used on actual productions.
