A BA CW design that never was and the new Finnair seat

From 2014: British Airways New Business Class Seat Patent Revealed

I'm glad they didn't go for it in the end I think it was a bit of an odd angle for sitting although might have been comfortable enough for "curling up with a book"!
The finnair version seems slightly "straightened-out".

These were the BA patent drawings:
