Think I read somewhere in the last day or two that one of the non-airworthy BA machines (G-BOAA and G-BOAB) will be going to Cosford. Not sure if that's confirmed though.

I suppose that's better than nothing.

The Duxford Concorde is a prototype, with many differerences between it and the production aeroplanes. It would make a fascinating exhibit to display them side by side.

It is beyond belief that none of the active fleet are going to a UK museum. The one bound for Filton has shades of G-AWZO, the BA Trident that went to Hatfield 'for preservation'. It was parked outside from the mid 1980s until very recently, by which time it was a tatty wreck and was cut up on site.

Who the heck makes the descisions about Concorde allocation?
