Good university with bad GCSE’s

I didn’t do very well in high school due to family issues. My GCSE’s were:
5554444333
I’m currently studying 2 A levels (predicted A for CS) and a BTEC.
Can I get into university’s like Nottingham/Liverpool/Lancaster for computer science with these GCSE’s?

The majority of universities don't care about where you were two years ago, they care about what grades you leave 6th form/college with. Even though they may sweeten the deal, from what I know, you're fine. Just focus on those A level grades and don't worry about what your GCSEs were.
You probably can. The one issue might be what grade you got at GCSE Maths. They might also look for A level Maths or sometimes CS. Check the entry requirements for each university.

Most unis ask for 6 passes which include english language and maths so I think you'll be fine...
