Oh..cause G-CIVC compared BA with CX, so I mentioned this as a general trend, rather than a fleet specifically.

No. The second service is a light option, nothing served in the main service will be offered for the refresher se vice.

A new menu will apply on that service, not sure if they will be rattling trolleys down the aisle (I hope not, actually). But the Sleeper concept will continue for those who want that, and meal service for those who don't. The night service will benefit from the new bedding, but not until mid October.

I really hope BA can work this on the Sleeper Services, without any distractions for passengers that need to sleep.

You may class me as a 'naysayer', but BA haven't exactly been slow on slashing service recently so there will be some people who are pessimistic with any enhancements put out into the network.
However, CW will only see a transformation when a new seat (all aisle access, less dense, more storage) is delivered. I do hope the new seat lives up to the hype.

For those of you who are trying the new service this next month, I do recommend the Loch Fyne smoked salmon tartare with wasabi crème fraîche. I really enjoyed that dish and found it rather moreish. The deserts and cheese are also worth saving some space for.
