No, it appears to be continuous. OP did not resign until the more junior role became available. In effect, she asked to be demoted once the vacancy arose, and moved into it. 

Hopefully the OP will return to clarify. As there's no need to resign prior to applying for and being for a new role within the same company.

Exactly, hence my comment  (post #4) -- unless the OP returns we will never know.
The term (and action) resign is rarely used when changing roles upwards or downwards within the same organsiation

It is not unknown for managers to block an internal move and the only way to do it is to resign.

Assuming the OP is over 41, she will (statutorily) be entitled to 30 weeks redundancy pay, plus any holiday pay due, plus notice pay if full notice not worked. This assumes that her contract does not offer more beneficial contractual terms.

To get to 30 weeks you need to be 61

You need to be 42 before the extra 1/2 weeks kicks in(full years over 41)

if only 34 it could be as low as 17.5 weeks.

Unlikely, as would have to have started work at 14 to have 20 years service at 34.

Unlikely but possible.
