LHR and LCY opposite approaches

I apologise in advance if this has already been done - I thought I could remember this being covered before but could not find it.


I happened to be working in the City of London this morning and I noticed that aircraft going into Heathrow were approaching the airport from the east, yet aircraft going into London City were approaching the airport from the west.


I wondered whether it causes ATC any additional complications when these two airports are approaching from different directions?
