If it was Freddie Laker, it'll be a McDonnell Douglas DC-10. Would it not have been to New York? Are you sure Laker? Sounds more like Dan-Air?

My first was 1977 BA from KUL (Kuala Lumpur) to LHR (London Heathrow) on the Boeing 747-100. Tried grapefruit for the first time and I thought it was horrible. Then caught a connecting flight to GLW (Glasgow) on the Trident.

In the days when plane makers tailor made to airline requirements. These days, factory made planes need to justify projected sales into thousands of aircraft before the prototype would be built.

Even in the days of 747-Combi or 747-SP were quirky and fun!
