St Pancras has a minimum connection time of fifteen minutes so this wouldn't be allowed, we can use the 0018 service instead (2G01 0008 London Blackfriars to Bedford), which arrives at Flitwick at 0119?

I can't see this on the Thameslink timetable I was consulting. If I can find evidence of this (I was slightly unsure about High Level to Low Level in 7 minutes) then we can change it :)
