I am in Sunderland, North East England, I have a 1.1 meter motorised dish I am curious as to what sats I should be able to pick up.

Can anyone advise please?

Not all of those will have a Western European beam or be viewable from a 110cm KU feed dish.

All those are theoretically viewable from your location assuming no line of site interference. As stated by SM not all those will have Ku band transmissions ( some could be C band) or indeed they may not have Ku band footprints aimed at the UK/Europe in which case your dish would be too small

You should be able to get something off between half and two thirds of them
