Including all categories, in the British Champs:

7 Ian Holmes (1996-2016, 4 open + 2 v40 + 1 v50)
6 Nicola Davies (1995-2012, 4 v40 + 2 v50)
6 Colin Donnelly (1987-2004, 3 open + 3 v40)
5 Angela Mudge (1997-2008, 5 open)
5 Lou Roberts (2002-2017, 3 open + 2 v40)
In the English Champs, where there are more categories:
17 Wendy Dodds (2000-2016, 1 v40 + 4 v50 + 8 v55 + 3 v60 + 1 v65) - would be equivalent to 8 without 5 year categories
14 Sally Newman (2000-2015, 2 open + 7 v40 + 3 v45 + 2 v50) - equivalent to 11
14 Dave Neill (1996-2013, 8 v40 + 1 v45 + 2 v50 + 3 v55) - equivalent to 10
13 Ian Holmes (1996-2016, 5 open + 4 v40 + 3 v45 + 1 v50) - equivalent to 10
12 Mark Roberts (1997-2014, 1 open + 2 v40 + 6 v45 + 3 v50) - equivalent to 6
8 Simon Bailey (2004-2016, 8 open) - equivalent to 8
I've just tallied that from a quick check of past champions, so is not 100% guaranteed to be correct, but I think it is!
So...
Rob Hope has won more British gold medals than anyone
Angela Mudge has won more British open golds than anyone
