You've not been upgraded to CE perhaps or is it showing ET and Group 1?

Ah well, you'll be on first then!

Is that on a paper BP or on the App?

Has your seat number changed? If you’re upgraded the boarding pass often (almost always) still shows your original cabin but with a seat number in CE.

Interestingly the chap standing in front of me on Wednesday evening's 21:00 LHR - GLA had the same thing, he was a silver travelling by himself in ET with group 1 on the boarding pass.

Is it simply based on numbers? As in a minimum of 10% are in group 1. If CE and Gold only make up 9% then some Silvers (based on CIV hopefully) will fill in the gap.

Efficiency of boarding wise it would be stupid to call a group/ devote time to a group that would leave a hole in boarding numbers

Makes sense, the Group 1 queue was pretty short.
