In case anyone is interested, the official response from the CAA:
ANO 2009 Article 256(1) gives the meaning of a flight for an aeroplane as-
"from the moment when, after embarkation of its crew for the purpose of taking off, it first moves under its own power, until the moment when it comes to rest after landing".
In the case you describe the aeroplane did not leave the ground and so there was no landing. This cannot therefore be considered to have been a "flight" and so the time cannot be recorded as flight time.
