^\(?(?:(?:0(?:0|11)\)?[\s-]?\(?|\+)(44)\)?[\s-]?\(?(?:0\)?[\s-]?\(?)?|0)([1-9]\d{1,4}\)?[\s\d-]+)(?:((?:x|ext\.?\s?|\#)\d+)?)$ |
| Description |
Step 2: After step 1 has verified the input is likely to be a UK telephone number, this pattern extracts the NSN part of the number so that it can be passed to another routine that will check it for length and validity. $1 is 44 (international format) or null (use 0 for trunk code - national format). $2 is the NSN. $3 is the extension number. |

020 3000 5555, (020) 3000 5555, +44 20 3000 5555, 00 44 20 3000 5555, 011 44 20 3000 5555, 0203 000 5555, 02030 005 555, (+44) 20 3000 5555, (+44 20) 3000 5555, and many others, any with NSN of 10 or 9. |
