Around September 1, as seen from London, Mars is setting almost simultaneously with
the sun, and is also drawing closer to the sun each day/night. Seen from the UK, the
situation won't improve much until perhaps late July or early August 2011. By then,
Mars will have pulled out in front of the sun sufficiently that it will begin to be visible in
the eastern sky before the sun rises.
This situation not only exists for the UK but world wide. If Mars isn't visible from the UK then it isn't visible in Australia either.
There will be a total lunar eclipse visible in North America on December 21, 2010; it will be very partially visible in the UK as the Moon will go into eclipse as it is setting. There will be a total lunar eclipse on June 15, 2011 primarily visible in India and eastern Africa, which will be partially visible in the UK when the Moon will rise already coming out of eclipse.
In the UK; 11 January 2010 and in the US; 2 February 2010.
The next solar eclipse visible in the UK will occur on October 25, 2022. It will be a partial eclipse, with the Moon covering around 29% of the Sun's disk as seen from the UK.

Mars is near the celestial equator and is visible from pretty much anywhere on Earth when it's in the sky and not overpowered by the sun's glare. For details of exactly where Mars is right now, consult an ephemeris, a table listing the locations of the planets in the sky.
