transiting in heathrow en route to dublin..urgent help needed!!!
 
I'm from malaysia and am taking a flight from Singapore to London Monday night on a British Airways flight which is operated by Qantas, arriving at 0620 on Tuesday, after which I am scheduled for another British Airways codeshare flight, Aer Lingus, to Dublin which is to depart at 0750. That leaves me with at most 1.5 hours to move from terminal 1 to terminal 4.

Do I have enough time for that??? And I just found out that I have to pass through passport/immigration control before taking my connecting flight!!!! Is this immigration counter the same as all passengers entering the UK use? If so, I think I'm going to have a problem with the timing!!! I booked all my flights through BA so I guess I should be able to check in my luggage (and myself) all the way from Singapore straight to Dublin??? Do I have to pass through immigration once again in Dublin Airport?

after passing through immigration, do I have to check in again for my flight to dublin?? I'm seriously confused...and WORRIED. Thanks for any help!!!!

No, once you arrive in the UK, you can travel to Ireland without your
passport - notwithstanding the airline's requirements for you to show it as
photo ID only.

And, as I wrote in this NG, Irish authorities may ask for a photo ID in
any port.
