Yes, I do; my brother-in-law is a reporter for them, so I know the corporation pretty well. If you read my post, I wasn't referring to advertising, I was referring to the news. BBC News ran a story regarding Halo 3 and the enormous amount of excitement and hype around the game at the point of its launch, and later they ran another story about the huge number of sales Halo 3 generated after its launch. And, to be clear, I'm not just talking about an online story; it was on the 6 o'clock news and repeated on News 24 for some time. So far, Killzone 2 is nowhere near that level of awareness in the public consciousness; I doubt the BBC will be running any prime-time stories about it (I could be wrong, however).
For a single, personal, anecdote (which, of course, means little): my Mum and Dad had heard of Halo 4 on the run up to its launch (they asked if I was getting it for my PS3). Neither have heard of Killzone 2, as of yet. Obviously, both are very aware of Wii Fit.
