The wee folk at Chez le Boinge have directed us to the PocketBeeb a BBC ‘B’ emulator for the GBA. According to Old-Computers.com,

[i]n 1985, the Acorn BBC Model B+ was released. The Model B+ had new features : 64k of RAM instead of 32 KB, internal circuitry for the Econet and Disk Drive as standard, they were both available as an upgrade in the models A and B. The later models included disk support as standard, using either a 8271 or 1770 disk controller.
