Not so; there are different versions of PAL. One such has the sound and
vision carrier spacing different to the UK, so you'll get either picture
*or* sound, but not both.

Something like a video recorder with SCART can be used as a cheap way
out of this if the TV can't be reset to PAL B or PAL G from PAL I; or
are there are little tuner boxes, although these seem to cost more
than a cheap VCR.
