Basically looking to buy a Blue Ray player...

I have LG 42" LCD screen with 200hz

Sky tv etc...

Budget say upto £300?

from a shop or online i dont mind... any brand except Sony, but i like LG and Panasonic...

If you can stretch to an extra £30 you could get something like this. Multi-region for DVD and Blu-ray.

IN MADNESS YOU DWELL

Most of the Sony players can be hacked for multi-region via one of those `one 4 all` remotes.

Makes sense to stick with LG, then use the same remote for TV and DVD.

BTW, what do you have against Sony? They make decent BD players.

I love my PS3, but you can get a standalone deck for about half the price if you`re not a gamer.

A PS3 can play BD.
But you need the buy the BD remote, and they are quite noisy as BD players.
I have a PS3 and a Sony BD player.
I keep meaning to change to an LG BD, to match the telly, but can`t be arsed.
