They are, but AIUI BBC1 uses a fixed bandwidth whereas  the others are use 
statmux (I think that's the term). 

BBC1 is fixed in order that regional variations in programming can be 
broadcast, whereas the others are identical across the country and a channel 
momentarily requiring more bandwith than the others can be given it at the 
expense of the bandwidth of the others.

I can't see how this might affect the lock, but it's possible I guess.
