I get the same results as you do Hugo, but when I ran

$ dig NS baiterpowerkites.co.uk

as well as the same reply you got I had an additional section

;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
ns2.tsohost.co.uk.      171415  IN      A       195.62.29.2
ns1.tsohost.co.uk.      171415  IN      A       195.62.28.20


What is this??
