You'll need to ensure they can vent - it's in the US, IIRC, it's about a 2 inch gap between the insulation and the roof underlay to ensure good ventilation. Otherwise very straight forward.

edit: found this - about a 2" gap (50mm) - https://www.thegreenage.co.uk/tech/insulating-your-loft-rafters-a-step-by-step-guide/

Thanks for that. There's no membrane between the tiles and the rafters at the moment either. My thinking is:
1. Tack a membrane to the rafters
2. Use insulation board, leaving a 50mm gap between new membrane and board
3. Cover with marine ply
4. Paint if I can be arsed
