Section F is what you need:-
Where licence holders have been unable to renew
a SEP (Land) or TMG Class Rating for a period
exceeding 5 years from the date of expiry*, they
will be required to complete the following
requirements:
i) Complete the Skill Test in accordance with
Appendices 1 & 3 to JAR-FCL 1.240.
ii) Pass an oral theoretical knowledge
examination conducted by the Examiner as
part of the Skill Test.
iii) The LST/LPC form, completed as a renewal,
should be sent to CAA PLD for endorsement,
together with the appropriate fee as per the
Scheme of Charges.
iv) The Examiner should make no licence entry.
For renewal of an Instrument rating, if held, please
refer to Section E1.
*Where an applicant can show that they are
currently flying under the privileges of an ICAO
licence, and are flying an aircraft type/class within
their UK or JAR-FCL licence, the renewal
requirements will be based on the expiry date of
the rating currently being exercised.
If you have one of the licenses that is valid for life, that is all you need. However if you hold one of the 5 year licenses it's validity will have expired so
section C kicks in.
Revalidation for any type/class rating that has
expired by more than 5 years** they may not have
their licence re-issued until such time as an
appropriate valid medical certificate and Certificate
of Revalidation are obtained.
This appears to be a lot less than I had to do.
Under the old rules I had to submit my license and log book for an assessment, which resulted in a requirement to do all of the exams and air tests again.
