Eurostar is 760mm. The EU TSI requires 550mm or 760mm; the UK rail network has a blanket exemption excluding it from that (platforms are more-or-less universally 915mm in the UK).

Except when you are in rutal Scotland. Then you will find a little stool on the platform to help you climb up a meter :)
