I believe Thai law requires she use her Thai passport. You can go with her through the Thai Passport immigration line.

There is no such law, but the standard recommendation on ThaiVisa, adapted to this UK/Thai passport situation, has always been to use the Thai passport to enter and leave Thailand, use the UK passport to enter and leave the UK. Being in the UK at the moment, in chronological order this means:

1. leave the UK with UK passport

2. enter Thailand with Thai passport

3. leave Thailand with Thai passport

4. enter the UK with UK passport

At the airline check-in, show both passports. At the immigration desk, it is sufficient to show only the passport of the respective country, plus boarding pass where required.

Brian, from the title of your topic I see that you are asking which immigration desk your wife should use, not which passport.

In Thailand, she should use the immigration desk for Thai citizens and present her Thai passport. In the UK, she should use the immigration desk for UK citizens and present her UK passport.
