See Policy Instructions, Immigration Directorates Instructions, Chapter 2 - Visitors annexes, Annex A - General visitors guidance:

2. DISCRETION OUTSIDE THE RULES FOR LEAVE TO REMAIN BEYOND SIX MONTHS

Leave to remain beyond the six month maximum period should only be granted in the most exceptional compassionate circumstances such as the illness of a close relative (see the instruction relating to "Carers"- Chapter 17, section 2). Applications for leave to remain for a period beyond six months, where no such compassionate circumstances exist, should be refused (but see ANNEX B in the case of academic visitors and archaeological excavations and Section 3 of this chapter in the case of visitors for medical treatment). Where, however, an applicant seeks to remain for no more than a few weeks because he was unable to obtain an earlier flight, leave may be granted provided the application was "in time" (within the original period of leave) and the ticket with a confirmed flight is produced.
