Valiant main gear

I was looking at the main gear on the Valiant. The gear looked to me to be a 4-wheel bogie exactly like the main Vulcan gear, but folding up and retracting backwards into the wing instead of forwards.

Weren't the production versions twin tandem type swinging sidewards in an outward direction up into the wing?

Anyone know why it changed?

Excellent clip, by the way!
