You need 100 hours of aeroplane time, but you don't need 100 hours pic - you can credit helicopter time.
You can get an ICAO PPL and skip straight to CPL, but what I'd recommended is this: book a 2 week package to Florida and get an FAA PPL, then do an EASA PPL test. That will give you something to hang the IR on, so you can do the IR before the CPL. Then night, the rest of the cross country pic for the IR, then MEP training, then IR. Once you've got 85 hours, the 15 hour CPL course.
