Probably far cheaper than the cost of taking it down.

Once it's up, it's up. It probably costs more to take it down

It whips up public fury to help oppose BBC cuts. If they do a U-turn they come out as the good guys who listened to the public, and if they don't they can sell more cookery books.

Like yokel says it's about moving it into 1 commercial entity. Staffing can certainly be decreased saving some dosh. Most likely an attempt to simplify. In fairness it makes sense to only run 1 recipe website rather than split your offering. It may move more hits to the commercial side and provide extra cash as well.
