S61 Operators in the UK

I am in the process of converting an ICAO ATPL to a JAA ATPL. It seems that due the types I am rated on, the cheapest way to do the flight test will be on a S61. Who still operates SK61N's in the UK? Is there a S61 Sim in the UK?

If the S61 is the cheapest way to do your flight test, i'd hate to think what else you fly!!!
For an hour in an S61, you could probably do 10 hours R22 and the flight test etc.

CHC do indeed have an S61 sim in Stavanger. In use every day. No idea if you can do type ratings etc on it. I thought not.
