I've never had anything like that, when I've been stopped its been for about 10 minutes where I filled in a form and then the police officer took the form and my passport away and then came back 10 minutes later and sent me on my way. That said on both occasions I wasn't actually staying in England, I was transferring onto an international flight.
I don't know what the success rate of this method is, but if they are successful in catching people using this method then I can live with it.
