Basically most banks within the UK are friendly to Bitcoin, I've had transactions with the name Bitcoin come up multiple times and didn't hear a single word from both Barclays and Hsbc. In fact, I even mentioned that I use it for Bitcoins to HSBC and they didn't care at all but actually asked me to tell them a few more things about Bitcoin. Further some banks on the channel island have come out and said they want bitcoin.

Does any of them open accounts for non-residents?

Hmmm that's a good question, the channel island is basically a tax haven so I would be surpised if they didn't

over the internet?

Most banks now take applications over the internet.. You will still need to show them a passport and proof of address which either means getting notarised copies and mailing them off, or if they have a branch in your country then maybe you can make an appointment and show the docs there.
