There has to be a general election in Britain at least every 5 years, so that is a longest single term. A Prime Minister can be re-elected as often as their party wants them and they remain in power, so there is no real maximum time they can serve as such. In modern times Margaret Thatcher was Prime Minister from May 1979 to November 1990. There have been longer serving ones. Robert Banks Jenkinson was Prime Minister from June 1812 to April 1827. Sir Robert Walpole was the first and longest serving from 1721 to 1742.

When can you start to talk of Great Britain as opposed to England?
Great Britain England is one of the countries which make up The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The others are Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. If you are talking about, for example, the County of Yorkshire, that is in England. On the other hand the City of Cardiff is in Wales, Edinburgh is in Scotland and Belfast is in Northern Ireland.
