Do they still provide a direct London service?

Basically, no.

Most people in Stratford drive to Warwick Parkway, Leamington or Banbury depending on which side of town you live / where you are travelling to.

Change at Hatton or Leamington Spa depending on which train you caught and the time of day and connections are never more than 20-25 mins most of the day. It's not the worst connected place, it has 2tph to Brum which is much closer than London and for anything else, there is the car.

Changing at Leamington will be far more sensible than Hatton. Firstly it will likely be the same island change (P4 to P3) whereas Hatton will involve a footbridge. Also, if things go wrong there will be staff at Leamington, Hatton is unstaffed.

A quick scan of RTT doesn't show any Hatton terminators anymore

I was returning from Stratford Upon Avon and wanted to use the PERTIS machine at Hatton, but crossing the footbridge is a non-issue when the connection time is 10-15 mins.

Hatton gets fasts to Marylebone at 17:06, 18:06 and 19:40.
