747-400 cabin heating/cooling question

Having just flown to Florida and back on a XX 747-400 over the last couple days,can anyone explain, in simple terms, how the hell the back of the cabin was roasting hot, stuck on the ground at London before departure then even in the cruise it didn't cool that much. Same happened on return but stayed hot all the way back in the cruise too!. (didn't even need a blanket whilst trying to get shuteye). The forward cabin areas were much cooler. Complained to the steward and he said he'd go see if it could be adjusted. The stewards/esses were sweating.
Not impressed, I have to say, but is the system broken up into cabin areas? Why was the back so hot and not the next forward cabin section?
