I think BOAC were probably talking rubbish....however the need for ANY NW-SE runway is debatable....the wind doesn't blow that way very often at LHR! so why build 3? :-)
A central terminal between 2 parallel runways is a good layout...I think T4 would have gone where T5 is now but they couldn't get rid of the Perry Oaks Sewage plant at the time
