Last night detectives were granted an extension to continue questioning her.

What sort of rules do they in the UK that requires an "extension to continue questioning"?

Might be they aren’t allowed to hold her for questioning longer than 24 hours unless they actually charge her with a crime. I seem to recall some kind of rule like that here in the US, anyway. But I’m certainly no legal expert.

If they haven't charged her yet, prolly similar to ours. You can't hold someone indefinitely for questioning without charging them.
