I've said earlier that I really didn't want or need anything since I'm getting "smaller" due to "downsizing" my life in anticipation for my move to England. But, it's been on my mind and my MIL asked me what she could get for me. So, I've been thinking...
There's a fancy grocery store in town and they do cookery courses. There's a representative from Veuve Clicquot who is doing five champagne tastings and food pairings with the cookery school. I'm down for that. Or...there's an iFly skydiving voucher Yes!

I definitely think vouchers for "experience" days are always a good choice (assuming you know the person well enough that you know what they like, that is hah) and you can't go wrong with them! I could TOTALLY do a cooking glass with champagne tasting without any complaint if your MIL would also like to gift me one
hahaha
Are there any like, wine subscriptions in the U.K.? I'm sure they would enjoy that! (It's official - I move in 3 weeks.
Yes, there are wine subscriptions here
I can't name any specifically but give it a google. I know they exist because my BIL gave my husband and I a "wine box" as a gift for Christmas one year. There were some REALLY lovely wines in there (think we still have some that we haven't tried yet as we didn't want to open it unless we had a fancy reason haha). He didn't assemble the box himself or anything, it was a pre-assembled service. They gave us like 3 whites, 3 reds and 3 rose's I think it was? (might've been like 4 whites, 4 reds and 2 rose's but you get the idea..). You could definitely find either one that will give them a new wine a month or you could get what we got which is like a pre-assembled box with a bunch of random wines (I'm sure you could customise if they prefer a particular type/colour).
If you'll definitely be there before Christmas and you want to make it more personal, perhaps you could make them like a wine gift basket yourself or something? If your husband knows what type of wine they like, maybe you could pick out a few bottles (unless they have expensive taste so maybe like 1 or 2 haha) and pair it with a bottle topper, bottle opener, nice pair of wine glasses (or maybe some festive looking ones...IKEA had LOVELY champagne glasses and might've had ones for wine as well) or something like that...Could order it all online to go to your husband's so you don't have to worry about shopping once you get here....but that might be a lot of work (and I have no idea what type of relationship you have with your in-laws) and it might be something that's just too much as you'll already be busy with the move itself and that is always a bit chaotic I think so you totally get a free pass
Also, YAY! You're moving here!
