Bags up to 32kg will continue to be allowed for First, CW and Gold & Silver card holders, but not their oneword equivalents. All BA staff are aware of the rules now.
If you arrived at T-20 I doubt there'd be sufficient time for the bag to make the flight. It would be touch and go at LGW, not sure how MAN is set up. In that case it should be sent on the first flight in the morning. Did you speak to Baggage Services in the Arrivals hall? They can chase it up for you.
