This is bringing back searches from the Google .com site but if you want to know how your page will look on the UK serps you can add &gl=UK to the end of the query string and hey presto you get the UK version.  This also works for &gl=ie in Ireland so I’m guessing you could transpose any tld to get the relevant results for you.
