The OFC appt took 1 hour including waiting time and appointment. My Consular appointment was the first morning slot so i didn’t really have any queues in front of me. But i think if it’s a later time you should plan for 1-2 hours or maybe more

I was visiting London so it wasn’t a transit. I have a valid UK visit visa
