[_] Back-ordering an unloved UK domain

Hi all,
There's a stagnating, unloved - i.e. unused for anything, email or web -
.org.uk domain I would like, which is coming up for renewal in a few weeks.
 I notice GoDaddy offer a domain back-ordering service; has anyone had
success with this or something similar?

And just to be clear: I'm not trying to rip anyone off.  But I have
absolutely no intention of paying the present owner's extortionate
expectations for an unused domain, which I can make very good use of for a
local charity.

Thanks in advance.
