Eur69 each according to Seat 61 but I'm on the phone now and will let
you know in a bit, hopefully.

Well, the DB call centre has only two people on at this time of night
(2am in the morning German time) and one of them is on break.  The
operator asked me to phone back in an hour but I will try tomorrow
morning.

I saw those in the timetable but you'll see that the arrival time in
London (20:03) is three hours later than my plan (17:03), almost
entirely because of the late start from Munich (10:50, vs. 07:27).

I would prefer to take the earlier trains.

"fare".  HTH :-).  

My plan will be rather more expensive.  Feel free to book that if you
prefer.
