TL;DR "run by the state" = run by the executive appointed by the trust appointed by the monarch.
The government doesn't have direct operational control. The BBC executive is appointed by the BBC Trust. Trustees are appointed by the monarch in accordance with the recommendations of the government. So, beyond the selection of the trustees, the BBC is independent of government.
