What is the story with the codeshare on BA routes to South Africa?

They appear on the website, but whichever airport you select in Ireland, there don't seem to be flights available.

If EI moved their flights to T5, it would vastly improve the experience of connecting in Heathrow.

Is there any chance we might see a resumption of flights from Cork and/or Shannon to Gatwick?
