Are you sure you haven't got the font size turned up in Opera?
Yes; and I checked with another Opera user; and I diagnosed the cause. So
yes, I'm sure :)

that I've had to turn it up/down in both IE and firefox before having
accidentally put it up for one reason or another.
I can't remember how it's done in Opera (and being at work I can't
check) but it's ctrl + or ctrl - in firefox

Does anyone know who would be the right person to contact about the fact

quite different in Opera 9 to Firefox and IE? It's only the body
text font
size on pages with a <div class="storybody">, which makes me think it's
probably not deliberate. :-)
For example, this one is currently the same in all here:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/7282385.stm
But this one http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7288820.stm looks like this:
Firefox/IE : http://bbc.dracos.co.uk/bbc-font-ff.png
Opera 9 : http://bbc.dracos.co.uk/bbc-font-opera.png
My default font size is the same in all browsers. It appears that in
Quirks
Mode, Opera displays font-size:small etc. differently to in
Standards mode:
http://bbc.dracos.co.uk/test-standard.html
http://bbc.dracos.co.uk/test-quirk.html
As http://www.opera.com/docs/specs/doctype/ says:
"CSS font sizes are increased by one in quirks mode compared to
Standards
mode: In Internet Explorer/Windows (except IE6 in standards
compliant mode)
font-size: small is interpreted as the initial font size. Opera in
Quirks
Mode emulates this behavior, but uses font-size: medium in Standards
Mode.
This means that the absolute font size keywords are "one size larger" in
Quirks Mode."
