PAL video in the states

[Corey Cohen]

So I have a friend who is originally from the U.K.   He has his old BBC micro from when he was a kid and wants to be able to use it here in the states.  His parents threw out his old TV in the U.K.  

Is there a way to use a BBC Micro PAL version with a modern US LCD TV?  Do some brands of modern TVs support both NTSC and PAL? Let's assume he may need to grab video before the modulator.  

Thanks,
Corey
