I asked this question before too and there is no definitive answer. There is a BAA plod at a desk at the end of the bridge into the main terminal to prevent people reclaiming baggage and then wandering back up to the lounge. They seem to be very inconsistent about the procedures in place. Phone the Info Desk and ask to have it sent out in writing because I suspect you will be challenged by a very bored jobsworth looking for a reason to say no. Sorry if that sounds negative but that's been my experience.

Here's a definitive answer (for now at least) on transfering after a Domestic flight
There is currently no way you can officially access the Terminal Departure lounge after arriving on a Domestic flight without first returning landside in the terminal and then coming back through security unless you have hand luggage only and a valid (not Internet check-in) boarding card for your onward flight. And you won't have one of those unless you've first cleared the domestic reclaim and then been to check-in.
This is because although you have the correct security clearance as you have said, the security officer at the end of the lounge tunnel cannot verify your boarding card for your "return" to the lounge and therefore have no process for doing so. They do not have a bar code reader for the Internet check-in printouts otherwise that could be acceptable, but still with a risk of the bar code not working and you having to return to check-in anyway. If the demand was there I guess BAA might put in a bar code reader on that desk, but that's unlikely given the current downturn in traffic.
You'd never be able to plan this, but if you somehow knew your onward flight was actually departing from a Domestic lounge gate then you could always stay in there if you had an Internet Boarding Card to get on your next flight.

This is the first I have heard of this route, So I would be shocked
If the paying pax know about it.
Its not on the BAA website from what I can see.
There has been no local news reports on the route.
However looks real enough

Well I've heard nothing and if this is true they haven't exactly done a great job of advertising. Website seems a bit dodgy. Hope it starts, would be an excellent route to add.

Ladder on Runway
It's obvious, isn't it ?
Passing aliens had a technical problem with their spacecraft. Needed to land somewhere so that one of them could get out and have a look at it properly. Alien in question was not that tall, so needed a step-ladder to climb up and have a look. Fixed the problem, forgpt to load the step-ladder into the spacecraft, and then took off back into space.
Since aliens put the ladder on the runway, all earthlings will be justified in saying it wasn't them

some cargo aircraft apparently have nooks crannys and crevices in the gear bays that possibly could have something like this stored in there, left by accident you would hope. Thank god it was found!
