As of today Nominet have introduced online transfers so all the registrant of a domain needs to do is to access their online services and they can transfer the domain name to you/the buyer directly.
The old system relied on the completion of transfer forms and copies of suitable identification. The new system is based entirely online and can generally be completed in a matter of minutes.
Registrant transfer will be available in the online services account associated with the domain name. Where multiple domain names have been merged into a single account, you can choose options to allow individual or bulk transfers.
This will save a huge ammount of time in the business of domain transfer. Well done Nominet!
