Because the UK government are even trying to block porn at the ISP level. It's unlikely they will get away with that, but they'll have to do something to save face. Saving British children from porn was one of their election promises.
I would hazard a guess that they will go down the German route and bring in a law requiring that all uk domains/webmasters have impossibly strict age verification systems. Either that or get google.co.uk to filter adult.
In which case co.uk would be worthless, certainly for an affiliate, if that's what you are.
Having said that, while I was looking at domain sales history last week, I did notice that good .de porn names go for a premium. Presumably because german adult pay sites have to rely on type in and exact match domains for seo in order to get traffic (with no german affiliate sites feeding them traffic), and so are willing to pay the money for them.
