That’s a little bit of an impossible question to answer I’m afraid.

I’m sure you must have seen in the past that you can travel on the same flight number, same day but one week apart  and one week the airport is busy, next time it’s quiet. 

Your airline will have instructed you how long you need to be at the airport before your flight, some have increased their times, others haven’t. Again also depends if you need to check in luggage, as I believe that’s where most airlines are checking your SpTH form, when you go to the check in/bag drop areas

If you haven’t got luggage unless instructed otherwise by the airline, your SpTH is checked at the gate.

Masks are worn as soon as you enter the airport terminal and the U.K. have all but dispensed with social distancing, so I wouldn’t expect any rules in place now, apart from the use of sanitizer. Let’s face it you could be sitting inches away from  a stranger on your flight anyway.
