I just want to thank you for posting this as I'm heading to Italy at the end of August with layovers in Heathrow. I'll be sure to check the deals!
And to try and answer your question, when you buy liquor at Duty Free they will place it into a sealed plastic bag that you take on the plane with you. Some airlines require that it's given to the crew to pass out to you as you board.
