Surely if Rob bought a return to Gatwick Airport at KXTL, they would

Yes, but it wouldn't be a London Terminals ticket, which is the point
of this thread.

But that's not what the question was about. Threads drift.

Indeed, though I should put my hands up to muddying the waters a
little. The reason I asked was that I clearly recall buying a return
to Gatwick at KXTL and, being a little late upon my return, deciding
to hop off at Farringdon and go straight to the office. When my ticket
failed to open the barrier the chap said that I wasn't really allowed
to detrain at Farringdon, but he'd let me off this once.

This puzzled me at the time, and still does...
