That's quite interesting, since as far as I know the fuselage is already narrower that far back and unless the aisle got significantly narrower, something has to give in the seats. On Easyjet, who I think have a very similar seat layout as BA will have, the last two rows have noticeably narrower seats.
Is the aircraft in fact not getting narrower at that point in the fuselage, by the last row of seats (easiest way to see: look for a bend in the overhead bin alignment)?
