"Original Trident"

Not sure whether I dreamt it, but I seem to recall that the original DH Trident design was of Trident Three size with Medway (larger) engines and slats (not droop) leading edge devices - then BEA got involved by demanding a smaller and "simpler" aircraft - hence the T1 with Speys and droop L/E?
