Never mind EOT, just emply a tasteful dollup of SiFR - http://www.mikeindustries.com/sifr for the uninitiated. Never mind all that proprietary EOT stuff, (and whilst I don't actually loathe IE, I just think it's a waste of a feature.) Bonus: cross-browser branded headers in whatever font the BBC's using now, plus if they run a feature or something else which has its own branding, they can slot it in. Bonus two: degrades gracefully. Bonus three: understandable by screen readers. :)
Also, why not (for Windows+IE users) use .EOT soft fonts? They are really easy to do! http://www.microsoft.com/typography/web/embedding/weft3/default.htm
