Region 1 on old tellys

I seem to be having problems playing region 1`s on my tv. The tv is maybe 5 years old and seems to be Pal only. When I play R1`s on my Toshiba 220E the picture scrolls rapidly (as if the horizontal hold has gone), but the sound is ok, so I know that the dvd player recognises it as a valid disk. Is there some way that newer tv`s are both pal / ntsc? Is there any way of syncing the picture, maybe via my video? This all connected via scart.

Or should I just buy a new funky sooper dooper widescreen tv...?

Chicken Run disk problems?

I`ve just got a new dvd player, the Toshiba SD220E. On trying to play my R2 Chicken Run, which I haven`t played for a while, it crashes on loading. There are random blocks on the screen. Other disks seem to play ok, so I don`t think it`s the player. Looking at the disk itself, it looks a bit cloudy. Does anyone know of any problems with the disk / player?
