You know this is really an incomplete marathon. The Best of Both Worlds is really a three part episode. There are the two that everyone shows in a marathon, then there is "Family" which raps up the rest of the story on the impact this encounter had on the crew and especially Picard. After watching this incomplete marathon this afternoon, I had to go back and pull out the 20 year-old S-VHS tape from the original broadcast and play back part 3.
---and I am still angry at the writers for killing off Robert and "Uncle" for no reason at the beginning of the TNG portion of Generations.
I would like to think that a network would stick a bit more closely to its original mission (no pun intended) . Sure the lead actor is British but the show has no connection to the BBC or British television. What's nest reruns of Tracey Ullman or maybe some Bob Hope specials?

The Discovery channels can little about thematic channel programming. Shalom in the Home appears on the Green network. If they have the rights to a program it can show up on any of the Discovery networks.
My guess is it's on BBCA because the lead actor is British, but also because Doctor Who is so popular. Maybe capturing in the process some of SyFy's audience who are tired of wrestling and ghost hunting.
There is so much good British sci-fi though, they don't need to load it down with the American stuff.

Sorry I can not edit my post - it should say Discovery channels care little ....
BBCA has explained the reason for this addition:

Yeah, I don't care if its not British. I wouldn't be watching BBCA anyways; now I am. It is popular, and they show it with decent PQ. Works for me.
That's Sir Captain Picard now...

Got in during the middle of one of my favorites tonight, the one with Frasier as the Captain of the Bozeman caught in a time loop... have to keep an eye out for it again...
