It looks like the first leg is fairly easy - there are several trains
leaving London for Edinburgh shortly after 10:30 (11:00, 11:45, etc).
The return leg will be slightly harder, as there are no trains leaving
Edinburgh before 9AM, and that will get into London too late.  There are
a couple of overnight trains, though, and that may be your best option.
They all appear to get into London between 9 and 10:45 the next morning.
The price for both tickets appears to be 98.20 GBP.  I assume, although
I don't know, that the overnight trains will have some sort of sleeping
arrangments.

Hope that helps,
