As I said on gis.stackoverflow, these two things are probably in the same CRS anyway.
But also some people have replied suggesting you transform the raster. DONT! (Unless you really have to...). If your raster had been something like 0.5 degree lat-long cells, then transforming it EPSG 27700 (GB grid) would be a "lossy" and non-reversible process. Far far better to always transform *vector* data to a given raster CRS and work there, since the vector coordinate transform is exact and reversible (to very high precision in most cases). If you have two rasters on different coordinate systems, eg one is 100 metre pixels in EPSG 27700 and the other is 0.05 degree in lat-long, that's the time you have to carefully consider which one to use as your basis and which one to warp.
