Things to which they own all rights and with the permission of central

What's that got to do with it?  Time-Warner is not going to pay some BBC
division for exclusive USA rights to a work if some other BBC division
retains the right to distribute the work in the USA.

At a guess, BBC transfers all international rights to most works it
authors to BBC Commercial which then markets them, with the result that
BBC Domestic is obligated to try to block non-UK access.
