What's the model of the new machine?

I'm not sure that there's a problem with all the Debian mirrors: retry the downloads - instead of using ftp.uk.debian.org change
it, perhaps to ftp.de.debian.org to check.

get.debian.org, grab a CD image - myself, I quite like the CD #1 which gives you KDE but each to her own.

Quicker, because smaller, is to download another netinstall.

All the very best, as ever,
