If released under a free license, it could find its place on Wikisource. 
I have found at least a few articles that could be used to improve 
Wikipedia ( http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/approved_entry/A592599 is much 
longer than http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Last_Word_%28radio_show%29 
and http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/approved_entry/A76282158 doesn't seem to 
have the article on Wikipedia at all). It is a question however if per 
http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/help/entry_faqs#copyright and 
http://www.bbc.co.uk/terms/#4 "In certain circumstance the BBC may also 
share your contribution with trusted third parties*." would allow for 
such a release.
