There's a few in the UK, they always seem empty with more staff than customers whenever I go which isn't very often as some distance from me, maybe the first to get the chop. I did order online once from them but the order was cancelled their end. That's my experience of them. I'm sure at Christmas though they are packed. The main one I've visited in Cribbs Causeway in Bristol looks a little tired which I visited about a month and a half ago just to see what they had as it was close to other stores I was going to.

As far as I'm aware, the US bankruptcy is affecting the UK stores.

I assume you mean 'isn't' effecting UK stores going by that link. Seems european stores are profitable which is great news for jobs. Seems US stores are profitable too just that huge burden of debt they built up previously.  Hopefully this will have a happy ending for everyone except the people who are owed money of course.
