A couple of smaller outfits:

slightly bigger

If you can host your own DNS and just need a registrar then I use
http://www.totalregistrations.co.uk/
A bit more mainstream is http://www.123-reg.co.uk/ I have a couple of
clients who use them, but they seem to have good years and bad ones.
there are others - bigger, etc. Check the list on:
http://www.nominet.org.uk/governance/members/list/
if you want the lot :)

Personally, I use www.gandi.co.uk (they're French).

Not bad, considering that Nominet charge them £5+VAT for 2 years.

I guess it's a case of bulk buy and hope they don't get any problems!
