I cant see it myself to be honest.

w1 -10 east
w3 -7 east
w5 -70.5 east
w6 -21.6 east

I dont know of any lnb setup that would cover over 60 degrees on any dish, plus aswell as that i really doubt if you would get 70.5e anywhere in the UK. It is below the horizon on the west coast and only just over the horizon in the east. :?

I think at a push you would get W1, W3 and W2 (even though its not on your list) on probably a 90cm upwards dish with multipul lnbs. You will need the smallest lnbs you can get to squeeze 7e and 10e together.

I'm sure if i have got my facts wrong someone else will correct me but i'm pretty sure that i am correct on my assumptions.

W6 is firing into the Mediterranean basin, and is not available in the UK without a silly sized dish.
