[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 741493, member: 175057"] I can find no mention of an analogue tuner on the information on the TV you are looking at, but would be very surprised if it doesn't have one, also it is now shown as not available. Even if the vcr doesn't work, the TV tuner in it probably still will, so nothing to stop you watch the Sky HD box through it. To take the VCR out of the loop, you just pull the rf leads out of the back and connect them together, or plug the magic eye direct into the TV. Your cable to the vcr does not come from the dish, it comes from the Sky HD box, so if you wanted to use your spare Sky digibox in that room, you'd need to run a new cable from the dish, if you have working Freeview, you don't really need to use the spare digibox. The simplest solution is to keep your existing TV, replace the VCR with a Freeview box, perhaps a PVR so that your wife can record things and then she can still watch the Sky HD box through the existing TV on the same channel she is using now.
