So all I have to do is pass thru immigration at T3 to go landside, take the HEX to go to T4 and then onto T5 and go through arrival check-in again?

Also if my luggage is to be checked-in all the way to the final destination, will I have to retrieve my luggage when I pass to the landside? Logic tells me no as the airline couldn't possibly know my intention to go landside. Unless it is the rule to retrieve and re-check-in the luggage at Heathrow for all international flights (as was what I have experienced at Chicago airport) anyway..?

Sorry if my questions sound silly.
