Blueyonder/cable if you can get it. 10mb internet and its superbly reliable - mine has only gone down for about 10 mins in 3yrs of being on 24/7.
If you can't get it, you'll have to "make do" with ADSL. be warned tho, a lot of the ISP with ADSL put limits (caps) on the amount you can download, because they are ****efaces.

Plusnet are excellent. Been with them for about 2 years or so and not experienced any connection issues; speed is consistently good, helpdesk is always manned and the lines don't cost the earth. Customers are getting free upgrades when the 8MB lines are rolled out.

Another vote for blueyonder here! 4 years of service with only a couple of downtimes, both quickly sorted, together with no capping of usage, makes them my only choice.
