Help! BA-VS interlining of bags @ LHR

A friend is flying PRG-LAX tomorrow through LHR.
BA connecting to VS and it is on the same PNR.

The connection is illegal by a few min (85 min). BA are saying they will not check the bags through and they have to be picked up at LHR and rechecked at T3. Obviously this won't work!

BA PRG will apparently not give a reason for not wanting to do this and I'm pretty sure they haven't even looked at the reservation. I know BA and VS hate each other but this is a bit silly. Does anyone know if they do have an interline bags agreement?

Rez is BA Club -> Virgin Upper Class not that is should make a difference!

Neither airline seem to want to get involved.

All advice welcomed .. I only know UA and WN.
