Yes, if it was under BA control, you potentially are in scope. However if there were other delays not under BA's control which made the connection unlikely to work then you will be up against another set of arguments. If the flight was on time but the handling put you outside conformance then I'm not sure it adds up, given a 1 hour MCT.
