I would check in online for the VS flight.
But then I would not worry, for two reasons. One: You have 3½ hours between flights (assuming you're on the early VS), so you have ample cushion for things to go wrong. Two: There is a second flight on which VS could reaccommodate you if things go really pear-shaped and you miss the first flight. You probably have no right to this, if you're on a cheapie ticket and you've bought the two tickets separately, but there is always that possibility.
However, if your BA NCL-LGW flight was booked separately, you will have to reclaim your baggage at LGW and lug it over on the shuttle from the North Terminal to the South Terminal to check in again.
