I've just tried a dummy booking using the OW Tool, and LHR-GIB followed by GIB-LHR worked for me.

I'm just wondering whether it's that you're transiting back and forth via LHR a number of times in the same itinerary, and the OW Tool is balking at that? Not that this is definitely it - I'm just trying to think of reasons as to why I'm able to book it, but you're not.
