As long as we're on the topic, how far in advance should we arrive at LHR for the 8:10 departure for CDG?</font>
Depends on many things - whether you have checked luggage, class of service and FFP status (ie how long the queue will be!). With luggage, in Y with no status you probably should be there 90 minutes or so as T1 can get quite busy at that time of the morning. In C with status and no luggage, 30 minutes is usually fine. Can't help you on the way back I'm afraid, as I haven't flown out of CDG for about 7 years!

Coming from the Earl's Court area, is the subway the best way to get to Heathrow? Thanks for the help.

Yes, absolutely. Piccadilly line all the way there - no changes. Will take about 45 - 50 minutes.
