If you can stretch to the higher end of your £500 budget you should be able to get a very reasonable 5.1 system.
Something like the Denon AVR1507 and Tannoy EFX 5.1 speaker package. There's even an online retailer including a pair of free EFX stands. The speaker cable supplied with the speakers isn't up too much, you will have enough left to replace this and purchase any other cables you need with change to spare.
Try and avoid the 'all in one systems'. Many are not good value for money, they have poor sound, limited connections for external equipment and they are just about impossible to upgrade.

You can then add a DVD player of your choice, upscaler or HD-DVD/Blu-Ray. I use mine with an upscaler for now, then once Blu-Ray/HD-DVD has calmed down I can just upgrade the DVD.
It only needs one cable up to the TV, keeps things nice and tidy.
You should be able to pick up the SS1000 for under £250.00 and the SF1000 for around £300. The SF1000 has speakers on stands and the SS1000 are book shelf speakers.
