Default Will they work in Spain?

Hello all, First time caller here. Hoping to move over in 2/3 months (Alicante) so I'll start you all off with an easy one.
I've got a 42" Plasma and a 36" L.C.D. television. I'm not good with electrics....do they need converted, or will they work with just adapters...or will they just not work at all?? Cheers.

They will work but will not receive the sound of Spanish analogue television and will only work with Spanish AV equipment by connecting with a euroconnector lead (SCART) or RCA phono plugs.

as beach forgot to mention, i´ll jump in - any sky equipment, connected with the scart or red/white/yellow plugs will work as well, as will any ps2 or xbox etc etc.

As they are plasma/LCD TVs they are probably fairly new and will almost certainly be able to receive Spanish broadcast TV. Check the specs, or see if there's a set-up menu which will allow you to change from PAL-I (UK) to PAL-G (Spain).
