re: satire@DeeFor many years, direct registration under .uk hasn't been allowed, and the namespace has been split into the subdomains we know and love (including .co.uk, .org.uk, .net.uk, .me.uk, .parliament.uk, and so on) inside which registration was allowed (though not necessarily by everyone; some of those subdomains have very strict registration rules). But you probably ought to know that - against the wishes of many in the internet community in the UK - Nominet is opening up direct registrations in the .uk namespace as of 10 June 2014. serverfault.com/questions/595417/is-co-uk-a-top-level-domain
