But I also like to confirm the information I find there with my destination country (immigration department website or similar).
As a practical matter, the airlines are often stricter in these issues than the country in question. The airlines use a system called Timatic to see what the requirements are. Delta has a nice interface to that system at http://www.delta.com/planning_reserv...tion/index.jsp. According to it, the UK indeed only requires US passports be valid for the duration of stay.
