So bus seems best.

It's because I've tried it that I'm seeking an alternative.

It suspect any option via rail or underground is going to be worse
than the bus. This is certainly the case getting from
Brighton/Gatwick to Heathrow, where the coach is a lot more
civilised than rail and underground if you've got luggage to deal
with.

The words "coach" and "civilised" don't belong in the same
sentence IME.

Absolute total and unmitigated ********, to be blunt.

We clearly disagree. Hate the bloody things, especially when I'm expecting
a train.

Was he disagreeing with you or redrafting your response?

The advantage of the coach is that it presumably takes you direct to
Heathrow, with no stairs and escalators.

Heathrow is relatively badly served by trains from most directions,
and central London is badly served by coaches from all directions
(traffic jams, Victoria Coach Station ...).
