In the UK? Nonsense. If that was the case the original Xbox would've been top dog here and it was one of the only markets outside of Japan where it did worse than the Gamecube. Sounds more like Plan C damage control.
The UK market are very pricepoint-fickle. The fact that it took > 5 years for SCEUK to drop the PS3 below the £200 sweet spot (and even then I think that might have only been the 12GB model) is horrendously laughable.

I'm pretty sure the Xbox performed far better than the Gamecube in the UK once they saw sense and dropped the price. On the continent the GC generally fared better though. This is backed up by software releases on both formats (there were games in the US that received a release on PS2/XB/GCN but when it came to the UK, it was just PS2/XB).
