Martin,
The audio is only available on iplayer for 7 days & some BBC programmes are only available in the UK, although being World Service that restriction may not apply.
According to http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p007dhp8 the programme on the 30th is available for another 2 days.
Presumably I could give away the copyright of my comments – but the questions asked etc probably belong to the interviewer/BBC.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. I will hold fire on posting full
transcripts since the situation is uncertain, though the summary of
"Anglo-Canadian" law shared by Tom suggests that the person who fixes
the interview in a given medium owns the copyright in that medium, so
that would imply I own the copyright in the transcript.
Suffice to say that Rod Ward gave a really excellent interview to BBC
World Service about academic contributions to Wikpedia, and there will
be a link to the audio, and perhaps some paraphrasing, in the
newsletter.
