Actually I think you'll find they do. No bag can go through security that is larger than the sizes laid down by the BAA.

And your allowance on BA is a wheelie bag and small handbag or laptop. If your laptop bag is larger than your wheelie, then both BA and BAA could well ask you to check it in. We are increasingly loading into the hold bags which are too big to go on board.
