Will that be seen everywhere or just in the Southern Hemisphere?

From a quick Google search here
The lunar eclipse that will soon pass over much of the Earth is going to be the longest this century.
And it is notable not just for its length, but also its breadth: it will cover almost the entire world, meaning that people nearly everywhere will be able to spot it.
The event begins on 27 July. The maximum eclipse happens at 9.30pm UK time that evening and will last for about 50 minutes – but it will be partially visible for a long time either side of that moment.
North America is the only continent where the eclipse will not be visible at all. For everyone else, it should be at least a little visible – how much of it you will see depends where you are.
According to the map on the site, yes potentially visible from the UK, providing a clear ish night !!

It will already be eclipsed as it rises on Friday for those in northern Europe, including Britain of course. You need to find a good spot to view it rising.
Timeanddate.com is useful for telling when it will rise and where you need to look to see it.
For me it is ESE and 21.33.
