I don't think compensation is payable since you decided not to go to your ticketed destination so you never arrived late there. You should have asked to cancel the LHR-ARN flight since you would have got a refund for it - albeit it wouldn't be a massive amount.
Will BA reimburse for the paid ARN-LHR leg?
The ARN-LHR flights was on a separate ticket so no they wouldn't be reimbursed by BA. For the paid tickets you would be due the taxes and fees if you didn't travel - not likely to be too much though.
