I saw this... Says 35 Days after but is that for all UK domains? or.com only?
Actually what it says is that if you don't renew a domain you own in less than 35 days after expiry, it will cost you (as the current owner) £200 to reactivate it. But it is still yours to reactivate for an unspecified period of time after those 35 days.

If you want to poach someone else's domain, you need to wait for the renewal to lapse for 35 days, then let it further lapse for the 'redemption period' which varies in length.

For .com and .net, the Redemption period starts 45 days after expiry and ends on 75 days. Linky

EDIT

It appears that for .uk the redemption period expires 90 days after the initial domain expiry Google is your friend
