I know that Virgin provide binary Usenet and I've read that BT include
giganews (though I haven't found where on their site they say that).
How about Be (soon to be O2 it seems), PlusNet, Tiscali etc? It's
something that would affect my decision if I wanted to change from
Virgin cable.
Thanks

Even if an ISP currently supports binary newsgroups there is a good
chance that the service will not be 100% or it is likely that support
would be removed at some point. I moved twice in the past to ISPs who
initially had full newsgroup support and eventually withdrew.
The best answer is to buy in a Newsgroup service such as Astraweb. $10
for a block of 25GB (check website to confirm) or subscribe to a
monthly amount if you are a heavy user. There are plenty of other News
Servers.
This way you avoid incomplete headers and short retention term.
