Just looked this up:

If you have an LFD antigen test within 90 days of a previous positive COVID-19 PCR test, for example as part of a workplace or community testing programme, and the result of this test is positive, you and your household should self-isolate and follow the steps in this guidance again.

Edit: so I guess you'd be eligable for another PCR at that point which could be negative in which case no isolation

Where was this from?

Here's the regulation, which I think matches up with what I said. I think the relevant bits are from 1 to 5. It's not exactly a straight forward read so there is every chance I've misinterpreted it!

Someone shared this before when I was in a similar position.

Here

just above that it does say you shouldn't take another PCR within 90 days of positive unless symptom/contact/travel
