more 6 yr/12 yr case law

Can anyone give me any more details about Scottish Equitable plc v Thompson, a county court case heard in Central London 10 April 2002? I've only found a very brief note on it; a mortgage shortfall case where the limit was judged to be 6 years rather than 12 because the charge (ie the mortgage deed?) contains no covenant to repay the principal sum, as it was envisaged it would be covered by an insurance policy. Surely this has profound implications for shortfall debt based on endowment mortgages?
