I have the perfect solution. Attach a pair of hair straighteners to a block heater and use the electric spark produced to fire electric shocks into the chimmney.
... Naturally you'd also need use a UK TV set and game console as part of the circuit for the biggest effect...

I'd feed it some hazelnuts from the cupboard.

Re: Anyone know how to extract a squirrel from a chimney?
When I had a problem with squirrels in my garage in N.S. I bought a suitable humane cage trap for a few bucks. Hunger will solve the problem ! Make sure that there is nothing laying around for them to eat. Bait the trap with peanut butter and a couple of peanuts in the shells. They can't resist. I then took them for a drive into the country and released them.
Problem solved.

When I lived in the country, I'd trap skunks and raccoons and the like and drive them into town and release them. Problem solved.

This is a great thread! If he isn't gone yet you may have to get a livetrap from the humane society and haul him out, (as has been suggested). Or get another squirrel to help him plan his escape, and introduce him into the fireplace....
