Any chance of buying an 'old banger' and driving?
Try the 8.55 or 10.55 trains from Genoa to Paris via Nice Then Eurostar [who are running extra Trains] to London This site European Train Timetables will enable you to sort out routing options [but probably won't have the extra Eurostars]. Look at Eurostar
