I understand landing into LHR on the same day as the trip is frowned upon.

I commute on the same day. No issues. And usually arrive a lot more relaxed than my colleagues who have drove 100+ mile and sat In the m25 and then battled for a car parking space. While I’ve enjoyed a coffee watched Netflix and had a nap.
Just make sure you’ve a back up plan or two.
