I'm aware what the Recognised professions are (so please don't repeat). Either I don't know them long enough or not in touch with them any longer or has passed away or not in the Recognised professions list. Besides waiting, is there any other way round this?

Have you considered using "a person of good standing in their community" instead of someone in a recognized profession?

@PatriciaShanahan What does that even mean though? The page linked doesn't attempt to explain, which suggests that even the passport office aren't sure.

It says on that very page you link
If youâÂÂre not sure who to ask to be your countersignatory
Call the Passport
Adviceline.
If anyone knows what you can do, surely they will.
Maybe it would be good to have the actual advice given by the Passport Adviceline in the answer, if possible? As it stands, this answer doesn't really provide anything over the quite inadequate advice given on the page the question asker linked.

@MJeffryes I agree. I don't, however, know what it is. Maybe it's information on what they consider to be 'a person of good standing in their community', and the answer is so comical that they don't want to publish it?
