    Do you have any TV aerials at all? If so, where? In the loft, or on the roof?

    If in the loft, go look at the aerial and inspect where the lead goes from it. See if there's a splitter leading to two leads. Look where the leads go, and if one leads toward the bedroom.

    Try another TV connected to the bedroom aerial socket. If that doesn't pick up anything, and it works elsewhere, that suggests the socket isn't connected to anything.

    Thank-you I'll try it later. Didn't think there would be this much bother to get a TV up and running.
