In UK - by bank transfer

If you don't end up with a trade here, your options include:

Blockchain.info has added the ability to use Barclay's Pingit to buy bitcoins using GBP:
 - https://blockchain.info/wallet/deposit-pingit


Bitcoin-Central has launched its BTC/GBP market, where you can trade after transferring pounds sterling to their bank in France.  The order book is pretty thin yet but they did just launch:
 - https://bitcoin-central.net/order_book?currency=GBP


You can also send cash (GBP) in the mail to Bitcoin Nordic (in Denmark):
 - http://www.BitcoinNordic.com


And, or course, there may be a chance for a local trade:
 - http://www.LocalBitcoins.com

It's gotten harder to buy btc in the uk in a reasonable amount of time after mt.gox stopped taking cash deposits and intersango's had their uk bank closed Sad

(also looking to buy bitcoins via bank transfer if anyone is interested)

Have you tried Blockchain.info's new Pingit purchase method?   It gets pretty heavy use now.

Have you tried Bitcoin-Central?

Tried setting up the pingit service however I never recieved the penny deposit with the reference code - and if you try and call the help line, you get put through to a call centre in india, with a horrible, horrible connection, so it's basically impossible to get anything sorted out.

I've not tried bitcoin-central however

I'm glad to hear this.

I haven't tried it yet, but only because my banks online service is down. As soon as I can top up my ping it account, I'll give it a go.

There's tons of buyers and sellers on localbitcoins.  Only trade with sellers who have a lot of feedback, and don't pay attention to the location as long as they are in the UK since you are paying with a bank transfer.  Localbitcoins is going to change their site to facilitate these types of trades instead of trading in person.

SealsWithClubs poker room has  over 400 players online. Buy in from .01 to 60btc.      BTCSportsMatch lets you bet sports with vig free lines!  Best kept secret in bitcoin....          LocalBitcoins.com is very user-friendly now for bank transfers.  You don't have to live close to trade when in the same currency area.           
Electrum client is awesome. Try it. And please stop sending bitcoins to sites run by security newbies, or don't complain when you lose everything.
