At the moment, you either arrive at 7:30am, or 11:30pm which means you either waste the first night, or have to pay for an extra day or 1/2 day (depending on the mood of the reservations manager) in order to get an early check in, same thing with leaving, you either have to be up at silly o'clock in the morning to make the morning flight or check out of your hotel and hang around for hours before taking the 02:00am flight.
The other option is of course to pay for an extra night in the hotel, but at £300+ per night this is rather annoying.
They arrive at this time, of course, to capture the return traffic and to land at a time that is convenient for these passengers to then get onward flights to North America and Europe once they have arrived in London.
