I dont think you'll get 'em too good in this country - Finland is always good.

If you go to Norfolk and you know when/were to look you MAY catch them faintly as they are on the far east of the country that juts out (Lowestoft is the best). that means there is nothing above them all the way to Iceland
Id LOVE to see it its truly amazing
my Mam n Dad went to iceland for a weekend and couldnt reccomend it enough, Its fucking dear though!

Iceland is very expensive just to see the lights.
Any of the scandiavan countrys would be better cost wise.
September to October and from March to April

Iceland is west of us though so would you not be looking over the UK, if you are far east.
