SEP renewal UK
If you applied for licence re-issue in 2006, the CAA would have sent you a new licence assuming you paid the re-issue fee and held a valid JAA Medical at the time. If not, your licence has now expired.
To have the licence re-issued, you need to hold a valid JAA Medical Certificate and to produce proof of a valid JAA Class (or Type) Rating held in the past 5 years. If your Class Rating expired before 23 Jan 2006, you will need to renew it by LST and submit the renewal paperwork and payment along with the licence re-issue paperwork and fee.
If you want to include a UK IMCR in your JAR-FCL licence on the back of your FAA IR, you will be exempted the ground exam and flight test, provided that you have flown an FAA single pilot IR(A) renewal test in the previous 24 months. So I guess that means if your FAA IR has been maintained purely by 'experience', then you will be required to pass the IMCR flight test if you wish to exercise IMCR privileges on a JAR-FCL aeroplane pilot licence....
No matter when your JAR-FCL PPL or Class Rating expired, there is no requirement to retake any PPL theoretical knowledge exams. Ever.

I recall doing most of a skills test in 2007. It was a dead reckoning flight around Kent, some PFLs, etc. Anyway I will find out soon enough. The CAA medical is a Class 1 and current. I fly only one plane, ever, which is N-reg so no need for an IMCR. I let the IMCR lapse after the last renewal in 2004.

If he was revalidating, but a renewal requires an LPC with an examiner

Should the person that did your 'hour with an instructor' also be an examiner can he/she sign your license?
If you choose to revalidate by proficiency check, because you don't or won't meet the "by experience" requirements, then that has to be with an examiner.
If you don't revalidate before the rating expiry date, then you will be renewing, which is by test, with an examiner.

Abbeville,
FWIW my 'one hour with an instructor' to revalidate by experience was flown with an examiner this year. He was happy to sign the paperwork straight after the flight.
