I think £20 is the cheapest I have seen for a uk domain name.


Btw, I think the catch is :-

In consideration for the domain name being made available to you at no
charge you agree that we can advertise and operate promotions by way of
banner advertisements on your web space at no charge, provided that such
advertisements and promotions are reasonable and that we fully indemnify
you
against any claim or action brought against you as the direct result of any
advertisement or promotion placed by us on your web space.

No. 11 of the terms and conditions :(
