I've never been asked about departure plans upon entry to the Schengen zone, and I lived in London for two years with regular trips to the continent. A couple times I was asked to help them find the entry stamp so they could see how long I'd been there, but that's it. (The amusing one was when flying ICN-TPE-CDG-FRA-IAD, and the border guard at CDG had stamped over several other stamps. The German border guard at FRA was
not happy about that, but seemed to understand that this was part of the difference between the French and the Germans.)
(Can't really comment on onward tickets from the UK, as I had a work visa.)
