It varies from place to place. I've seen people have their duty free bags
confiscated at Frankfurt for purely internal European flights. It seems that

liquids are confiscated on the security check required to transit at
London Heathrow. 100 milliliters is the limit, and this includes duty-

Right. Any time you are flying to or from the US or to or from the
UK, you can expect the inane rule that liquids must fit in a baggie to
apply.
So if you want that cheap bottle of Scotch to dull the pain of
interminable BOF sessions,
