You often see people sleeping in airports but I can't imagine they let you do that at Heathrow.
HA ! That happened to me during a minor snowmaggadon at LHR. Went to the Arrivals lounge, was grudgingly allowed in. Since literally no one knew what was going on I asked the dragon lady what time do you close ? Her reply left me speechless. She said we will be open all night but you cannot stay in beyond 12 midnight as it will be the day after you landed ! Had a departing connection boarding pass on me, All I could muster was,"look at me, mark my name and by all means call the police to evict me after midnight". Never heard from anyone.
