I don't think it is on hiatus, but it may be, as doyle suggests below, that the general hoo-hah with the Olympics would make them give it a winter start, which if they're having a mid season pause again, would mean some of the season would air in 2013.

Quite plausible given the BBC's hysterical attitude to what sport they can actually get the rights to.

Oh. So it's time for the Olympics AGAIN. Well, that would explain a lot--TV does tend to go mad about sports in general and the Olympics in particular.

And they're in London this time, so the British media madness is pretty much guaranteed to be turned up to 11.

Okay, that's probably the explanation. I can see the BBC stations getting a bit weird about being impressive. And since I don't pay any attention to winter sports (seriously, my winter sports are called "obtaining heating oil" and "trying not to freeze to death"), I wasn't even aware that it was time for yet another Olympics.
