After reading this would we be safer taking everything we need in hand luggage? The thought of our checked luggage going round the LHR baggage system overnight (for almost 24 hours) also worries me.

I wonder if everything worked out in the end for the OP.

Any advice anyone?
If I were you I'd keep it simple and leave the bags in-system. Take a change of clothes/toiletries in hand baggage. Leaving aside a potential situation like OP's (which is unlikely to happen TBH) I wouldn't want to schlep it around LHR with 3 bags in the heat we've been having these days.
