SB,

Note that "Please note: BBC Radio does not accept programme ideas from individuals unattached to a production company." does not say that they want you to also do the work. The only requirement is that they have someone to talk to. What happens beyond that probably depends on selling the idea.

There doesn't seem to be a shortage of production companies in the UK, and I could imagine some having less projects going at the moment than they would like. It shouldn't be impossible for one of them to attach themselves to you.
