....how much are they in the UK just now?
I can buy one here in oz to bring back for about £220 with 2 games. Obviously the power plug is different but I'm assume the console would be compatible with uk equipment?

It would work in terms of powering it, you'd just need a uk power lead to plug into it, and then it will automatically adjust for any voltage differences, i know this because i have a US PS4 and it works fine with a UK power lead.

Do Xbox ones play DVD's and Blue Rays? if so its worth noting it wont play anything from the UK

Apparently all Xbox ones are region free so should play anything from anywhere, just the power adapters that are different.

Oh.., as for the region free... i think you will find the games are region free, not the dvd/blu ray player.
