I’m planning on doing the above tomorrow but with a break at Crewe and am planning to pick up my journey later at another journey further down the line, perhaps Lichfield Trent Valley or Tamworth, what’s the best thing to do here?

LNR sale ticket by any chance? Reported on thread at top of this that break of journey is fine.

The only useful flexible through tickets I can see that permit break of journey are:
Anytime Single routed LNR & WMR only for £77.20
Off-Peak Single routed Any Permitted for £79.80 (restriction 2C)
An Off-Peak Return also exists at £114 if you're returning to Liverpool in the next month.
[Updated - see below]
It looks like the cheapest option is to buy two separate journeys:
Liverpool Lime St to Crewe single is £18.50
Lichfield TV/Tamworth to London off-peak single is £41.20 or super-off-peak single (arriving into London either 1300-1559 or after 1900) is £36.60
The forum site is offering some slightly cheaper split tickets than this that may also be worth looking at.
I can't see any particularly useful advance fares for this split but that would also be an option if available.

I've just realised it would be possible to buy a London Euston to Liverpool Lime St super-off-peak return (LNR/WMR only) for £46.10 and discard the outward portion. Break of journey is permitted on the return portion. This would require you to arrive into London after 13:00 and not depart Liverpool between 16:00 and 19:00.
There's also a similar London Euston to Liverpool Lime St off-peak return routed LNR/WMR only for £60.50, which you could discard the outward portion of, and which is valid to arrive at London after 10:00.
