Oh if you're coming to London, definitely setup an account in a UK bank. Bring driving license, passport and a utility bill or two.
You'll probably need to contact them beforehand and find out what branch deals with international accounts, because I don't think a standard branch would be able to sort it out for you.
Check out either HSBC or Bank of Scotland. Those two would probably be able to accomodate you best (at a guess, if not there are numerous others).
P.S where are you staying again?
