Sadly, as far as I know, in the UK, a jacket potato
is a baked potato. They do do them rather differently from what I see around here. A longer cooking time with a high temperature start to crisp the skin and then a longer lower temperature to finish the cooking process.
See
Classic jacket potatoes,
Mary Berry’s Posh Jacket Potatoes or
The Best Baked Potato? Try Our English Jacket Potatoes! for examples.
The last example takes about 2 hours 15 minutes in the oven but my kids loved it for the texture and very crispy skin.
