All BA served airports except Newquay (?) the rule is 2. One a wheelie type bag - maximum size of the bag must not exceed 56x45x25cm (22x17.5x9.85in) (including wheels, pockets and handles). They can get quite pedantic about this sizing. Beware some bags sold in the USA claim to conform but exclude handles and wheels from the measurements.
In addition, one laptop sized bag, handbag or briefcase.
A 23kg(51lbs) maximum bag weight applies and you must be able to lift the bag into the overhead lockers in the aircraft cabin unaided.
