That's because for the trial, the TV has to support WCG/BT.2020 over HDMI, as the HLG format only works properly with that colour space format. HLG on TVs that don't support BT.2020 will have muted colours i.e. not the intended ones.

And this is a trial of HLG for live events, it's not a general 4K trial, so the BBC aren't producing a stream that would work on TVs without the BT.2020 support.
