TV ariel recommendations please

We have a couple of small/portable teletext-enabled TVs in need of new indoor ariels to improve reception. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Preferably for ariels that don't need a power supply (e.g. battery or wall socket power) and not too pricey!! Many thanks everyone.

I've always been of the view that set top aerials are much of a muchness, suggest you try a couple from Argos as you can take them back if no good.
You may get as good results from a length of coax connected to an old wire coat hanger.
Seriously if you fit a proper aerial in the loft you will get much better results.

Cheers penrhyn. We have static TVs in the house connected to a loft ariel. This post was purely about the portables. I'll take your advice and see what Argos have to offer.
