Default Layover Time in Heathrow?

OK - so here's the situation. I have a flight going into Heathrow, were I'm supposed to transfer to a flight to Dubai.

Is 2 hours and 15 minutes enough time to get my baggage and re-check-in, go through security and make it for my flight? Isn't 2 hours plenty of time?

Other people are telling me I need 3 hours minimum... what do you think? I've never been to Heathrow!
