Anything you buy from the UK will work here, the machines are designed to play the same discs, DVD or Blu-Ray.

It's not an issue of PAL vs. NTSC, it's the region code that may be a problem but all of Europe has the same code, they're all listed here...

If you were buying from the US, you'd need to specifically buy a disc intended to be played in Europe or one that was 'region free' which is the case with a lot of cartoon & instructional movies.
