If it makes a difference, I'm thinking of IAD and LHR.

Haven't flown BA other than in J for a while!
You should be fine. Make sure you have your OW equiv card at the ready though in the rare event that they ask.

Read the benefit carefully...it only mentions boarding at your leisure but not WHERE you board.

Do you fly much on BA? EC Silv/Golds use the priority boarding lines just like we use the club/first check-in counters regardless of what is printed on on the signs and what ticket class is purchased. That is how the "priority" benefit is provided.
