As the query is from within the UK it is best to call Her Majesties Passport Office Advice and Complaints Line on 0300 222 0000 and follow the options with the automated line (in regards to advice about an application process, not applying itself) until you reach an operator.
They will advise you (for this particular situation) to:
Section 3
C: Details of the lost and stolen passport
Issued at (Month and Year)
Holders surname at the time it was issued
First and Middle names
- How the passport was lost, or why it is not available
- Date of loss
- Place of loss
This information would suffice for the application and the interview process (including the aforementioned documentation already accumulated)
