Chinese-language content is not the subject here anyway. BBC World News is
an exclusively English-language TV channel, its cable distribution in China
was reportedly quite limited (not part of packages available to "ordinary"
people) and routinely censored:

So it's rather a symbolic step in retaliation for Ofcom withdrawing its
licence a week ago, likewise resulting in the program being removed from
British TV platforms immediately. By the way, can anyone open
http://nrta.gov.cn ? No server connection here, looks very much as if this
website is geoblocked, maybe accessible from within the PRC only. I don't
know where this screenshot comes from, but I see no reason to assume a fake:

What I find much more interesting is how the BBC is now out in Hong Kong,
too. So far no statement from them. I'm curious if they will again go the
appeasement route like in 2017 when RTHK had already relegated them to the
night hours or will, perhaps, communicate the development this time in the
same manner than recently the end of their cooperation with Aaj TV in
Pakistan, thus making RTHK managers losing their faces.

RTHK's small announcement: https://app3.rthk.hk/press/main.php?id=1845

What their editorial offices still can do:

And this one, with an alleged EU statement I see quoted only here and by
Alibaba-owned SCMP which I consider insufficient for reproduction:
