The only thing is that if I switch the Yaroze on, my Sony TV auto swiches to composite, not RGB. Colin.

No, I think he means go out and buy the 34.99 (rip off!) official Sony lead. I have the misfortune to have a Sony Trinitron which only works with the official Sony RGB Scart lead - some other tellys/monitors are probably OK with a generic, cheaper alternative (I think DATEL do a good RGB SCART lead). You can buy SCART leads which are SCART shaped, but they aren't RGB - the connections inside are just composite. Just tell the guy at the shop you NEED an RGB SCART lead to run import games - they should know what you mean. An RGB SCART lead. That's what you want - it's the only way to get NTSC signals in colour on a UK TV unless it's a true multi-system (quite rare).
