#1 Accuracy eludes the BBC yet again. I'm fairly certain pickles and pickled Chinese cabbage are two different things.

#2 Agreed something got rost in translation-
However when I went to Japan a few years back I spent a half an hour watching a "pickling shop" open for business for the day and was amased at the number of ingredients that were being pickled in this mom and pop store. As with most things Japanese, very detail oriented and specific.
Maybe it is our definition of associating cucumber pickles with the picling process as a whole is a bit narrow.
