Any shower pump sold in the UK will run a single standard over the bath
shower.

Then you will need a twin impellor to pump cold and hot.

The main differences between pumps is the quality, resistance to hard water
scaling, ability to run continuously without a rest and ability to run
multiple outlets simulataneously.

For this system I would recommend a Stuart Turner Showermate 1.4 bar twin.
If you want something more heavy duty, go for a Stuart Turner Monsoon 1.0
bar twin.

There are cheaper alternatives, but the Stuart Turner is likely to have
lower Total Cost of Ownership over a long period.
