Re: cd's & dvd's
If the DVD can be hacked or chipped to be multi region then yes. The videos will not play unless you have a PAL vhs player. Cd's are fine.

....and if you do, the TV won't recognise the signal unless you bring a Brit TV or have a multisystem TV.
Unless I've been misinformed for the last few years.
With the number of VHS tapes I have, if I was doing it all again, I'd have shipped a TV/VHS combo with them.

I bought a DVD player here in Canada, it is an ITT, and I was able to unlock the player so it plays all regions.

It was looking for hack codes for our DVD player that I found the BE web site and somebody had posted a website address on it.

I haven't found a multi-region DVD player here that doesn't handle the PAL bit... and I've been through a few already

Re: cd's & dvd's
For VHS tapes, the simple solution is to copy them to DVD.
