Tom,
With regards to bills you have to think about the following, this is a guide based on my circumstances in a 3 bed semi.
Gas and Elec - £55 per month with dual fuel discount
Water - £18 (on a meter, was 65 in my last house on rates so be careful)
Home insurance - £20
Council Tax - £110 with single occupancy discount - £83
TV License - £13
Internet/House Phone - £25
And of course Mobile Phone, Mortgage, car insurance if you pay monthly.
As Chris says it's normally 1.5 months rent as deposit, and first months rent up front so you can very often be laying 1K down up front.
