Sheffield Hallam University have an MA course:

http://www2.shu.ac.uk/prospectus/op_pglookup1.cfm?id_num=CUL012&status=TN

...three years for the MA but it looks like
you may be able to get a PgDip or PgCert for
the first one or two years... (not completely
clear from web site you'd have to ask them).

It's a real university, unlike the other thing
mentioned above...
