Looks like the 77T

Not personally flown that cabin/config, but looking at the layout, I would expect the legroom to be broadly the same across the front row seats.
Would personally take A/B, the middle seats also have the small risk of other passengers using it as a cut through to the other aisle.

Looking at the date and seat maps it looks like row 10 A/B JK are slightly further forward due to the bulkhead for the toilets in the center. Row 11 is normal. If you are comfortable next to toilets then 10 is fine. Personally I don’t want to be next to toilets on an aircraft so I’d sit elsewhere.

ANU -LGW BA2256 4/2/24 is has been moved back to CS (again).
My tale of woe -Paid for CS seats 1e& 1f , frame then changed to standard CW layout ,as expected, to be fair. Our seats remained 1e&1f but didn't fancy them in CW ( I prefer an aisle to avoid the unseemly leg scramble) so moved them to only aisle pair 4a and 4b , now changed back to CS and have been allocated 7e and 7f .The only other options are A and K seats in rows 11-14 -any thoughts on what's better, for a couple, i appreciate not easy to communicate as a pair on the the CS layout, but current my thinking is a pair in row 7 might be better than behind each other in 11 and 12. Also can anyone advise if seats any of the other e&f's are blocked or booked .Thanks

Thanks for your response - does four corners mean literally service starts in the 4 corners i.e. row 1 and 14 ? I guess that means we'll be the last to be served, but that doesn't bother me as long as my first drink is promptish ! the only other issue of moving back is if there's a Club Kitchen , once sat in the mini cabin in CW to Lima and all night i was woken up by people coming from WT/WTP to pinch items. If there is a CK there, i'd rather be in front of it.

My flight from IAD-LHR on March 29 got changed from a 787-10 to a 777.
I know the 777 CS config has the smaller section up front and then the larger CS section behind the galley.
I’ve seen on Youtube vids that seats in the smaller section are ideal. Is this the general consensus on here as well? Also, 8k is the seat without a window correct?
There will be 2 of us but I think we prefer window seats for the flight to LHR and possible middle seats for the flight home (same config 777).
