If you have bought the ticket all in one (not split the journey and bought separate tickets for parts of the journey) I think if you are delayed by a late train they are obliged to let you travel on the next available train. It is wise to get your ticket endorsed by staff at the station and you will lose reserved seats. Staff at Paddington will know all about tube disruption!

However will only normally get passed if it is unplanned disruption.

If that is so the issuer of the tickets has sold something that may be impossible to use.

Not really - they normally allow at least an hour for cross London and Victoria line to Oxford Circus/Bakerloo to Paddington can be as quick as the direct route. 5 minutes longer max
