    If you're having a plasma, you won't need a radiator!

    I dont mind them on walls but they should be at a reasonable height not high up like what Avoriaz mentions

    I have a small lcd on chimney breast in bedroom and its fine but downstairs I use a stand with other stuff, but I do have the room in a alcove for it up to about 70"

    Try looking at the space you plan to mount the screen for a while and you may see what I mean.

    100% agree. Try doing this for 2 hours or the length of your favourite film...
  • can you not just turn the rad off??

    Many thanks for some very useful ideas, it so happens, the ideal place and height seems to be above the radiator, the heat is an issue. Most definitely it will not be a Plasma. Furniture suggested by Belnahua is good but I already have a mantle piece(chimney) and will look too busey.
    5 years warranty should cover for the 5 years, in case of any mishaps.
    thanks a lot everyone.

    We have ours over our fireplace (fake fire)

    Height is not a problem

    Buried in the wall - trunked inside the wall, all the way around to the cabinet in the right of the pic, in there is the sky-HD & DVD.
