Does anyone know if a DVD recorder purchased in UK will work OK on a Spanish TV and record Sky Programmes

isn´t a dvd recorder for recording dvd > dvd ?

or do you mean one of them really expensive ones that can record straight onto dvd from the tv? if so, it should work and record whatever is coming in to the unit from the scart cable. so it will record from a sky box, a games console, a video player.. anything :)

I have a Panasonic DMR-E100H DVD HDD recorder which, although purchased locally, was supplied directly by a UK wholesaler as it was not available in Spain.

It will not record from Spanish television broadcasts as the sound channel separation is different but will record from a Spanish video recorder or satellite receiver via a euroconnector and from a Sky digibox via a euroconnector OR an RF connection through the aerial sockets.

If you're using a sky decoder, the TV is irrelevant. We have similar system. Works a dream!!
