Blake Street to Southall Broadway, what ticket do I need?

(Blake Street is a little station on the north side of Birmingham)

When visting London via this route I usually get a day return to
Marylebone on Chiltern, with a zones 1-6 travelcard on the same
ticket. Would this cover me to catch the tube to padington, then the
train to Southall?, then the bus to Southall Broadway

(I have an Oystercard if that is a better option, but as far as I can
see you can't use em on this line)

Certainly will. Your current ticket (a day travelcard) already covers you
on all rail, tube and bus services throughout zones 1 to 6. Southall is in
zone 4.

The London Connections map has an explanation in the right hand column - you
should be able to pick one up at Marylebonel.

I'll be someway off course if I end up at Heathrow, though!

Probably worth pointing out that you can use a Travelcard on Heathrow
Connect between Paddington and Southall. Travelcards are not valid between
Hayes and Harlington and Heathrow.

Just to add to that (though it doesn't apply in this particular case)
- any Travelcard, regardless of the zonal combination, can be used to
any London Buses service anywhere in Greater London (and in a few
instances a little way beyond the boundary as well) - i.e. a zones 2-6
Day Travelcard can be used on buses in zone 1.

(Though on Croydon Tramlink, whilst a London Bus Pass can be used, a
Travelcard can only be used if it is valid in any of zones 3/4/5 or 6
- so a zones 1&2 Travelcard is no good.)

Yes it would, but there is not point catching a bus from Southall
Station to the Broadway - it is a one-stop journey and unless the
traffic is unusually light it is quicker to walk.
