I've heard that BGP are switching it to mixed sex flats from the forthcoming year onwards.

On the site it says "IF YOU WISH TO BE ALLOCATED WITHIN A SINGLE SEX FLAT PLEASE INDICATE THIS IN THE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS BOX" - so assume they are already mixed sex, i just wanted to know if that means that i will be sharing with girls and guys or if that means i will be in a flat full of guys but the flat beside me will be full of girls.

It means you will be in a flat with both guys and girls, basically...

It used to be single sex flats, but mixed sex blocks.

I believe it is now mixed sex flats unless you specifically request otherwise.

From Sept 09, it'll be mixed sex flats unless you request otherwise yes.

I put down mixed sex, but when I investigated which block I was in next year they told me my flat was all males. But, my theory was that because it was not ensuite they would not mix girls/boys.

No at the moment, all flats are single sex, from Sept 09 they will be mixed. This is regardless of room type e.g. single, ensuite or shared bathroom.
