Don't mean to be argumentative, but from the BA website (italics mine):
All other international routes
Adults and children aged 2 and over FIRST - 40kg (88lbs)
Club World/Club Europe - 30kg (66lbs)
World Traveller Plus, World Traveller, Euro Traveller - 23kg (51 lbs)
You're certainly correct about the 70 lb. limit for one bag, but I don't plan to take more than our baggage allowance.
Heavy items
Passengers taking more than their baggage allowance will incur excess baggage charges
No single bag may exceed 32kg (70lbs) in weight
