No. But most people would guess something just under 40 minutes
including changes.

depending on where you change lines and the time of day (i.e early or
not) I would estimate between 35 and 40 minutes. I'd personally
recommend you change at Piccadilly Circus having taken the Bakerloo line
from Waterloo. Changing at Green Park (from the Jubilee) or Leicester
Square (from the Northern) involves longer walks and more steps that at
Piccadilly Circus.

Note that the Piccadilly Line has engineering works west of Hyde Park
Corner so it might be slightly less frequent than it normally is on a
Saturday.

If you had time you could, of course, take a 243 bus direct from
Waterloo all the way to Wood Green. In the earlier part of the day it
is unlikely to encounter very much traffic so it could be an easier
option. The full timetable is available here

Bus stop details at Waterloo are available here

I'd even suggest changing at Oxford Circus and Finsbury Park - very
short walks and no steps at all.
