Will My British TV Work In Czech Republic?

I had no idea, but a 10sec Google shows that their voltage is 230v 50Hz so that should be ok. Uncertain what your current de-coder is, and dependent on whether your Sony Tv has an integrated decoder (unlikely) you may have to purchase a local digital decoder set top-box to uncramble satellite and terrestial signals.

If your TV can receive the DVB-T2 standard and HEVC/H.265, it works. Mine at least does. Czech terrestrial TV doesn't require any kind of cards or subscriptions. However something like a TV license is required.
All you need to do is get an adapter from 3 pronged to two pronged. Even ASDA in the UK sells them.

You're welcome. However my knowledge is around two months old, and things might have changed.
Terrestrial Czech TV is still free to receive apart from the TV license registration.
In the Slovak Republic terrestrial TV is not free to receive. Upon TV License registration in Slovakia a card is sent to the subscriber which is then inserted in the back of the TV.
I am guessing that in the Czech Republic at some point in the future they will move to a similar system and process as in Slovakia.
