The UK number plan contains 8, 10 and 11 digit numbers if you count
the leading zero access digit as part of the number, as is the
convention. More specifically:

- 0845 is all 11 digits, except for 0845 46 47.
- 0800 is a mix of 10 and 11 digits, except for 0800 1111.
- 0870 is all 11 digits, no exceptions.
- 0500 is all 10 digits.
- 01xxx is almost all 11 digits, but there are some 10 digit exceptions,
  e.g. 01527 6xxxx.
- Everything else (01/02/05/07/08/09) is 11 digits.

One thing to note is that the Oftel/Ofcom codelist.zip is not reliable
for determining digit length of 0800 numbers.
