As far as I know there are no EC Seminaries in the UK - you have more chance in the USA - though of course you could always head over to Lviv biggrin

An Englishman studied and graduated from SS Cyril and Methodius and went to the Archeparchy of Winnipeg of his own choice.

He would presumably be trained at the US seminary under the authority and with permission of his own bishop. Not having been ordained by the US bishop, he wouldn't become attached to the eparchy and "captured."
