Already posted in the wrong place.Sorry .Just seen an advert for the above and wondered if I would have to disconnect the hdm cable that carries the freesat or could I connect my laptop to the tv with the hdm cable labelled hdm2.? Can't believe it will be straightforward but I live in hope!

No you can use any HDMI input on the TV if your laptop has a HDMI output.
If using the free month offer remember to cancel it, the range of programs/films is quite poor even for £6 a month.0 -
As I posted on the other thread;
Seeing as it's a streaming service then you need a network-enabled device to receive the signal, connected to your home broadband router (by cable or wirelessly {may need a separate wireless dongle})
This could be a network enabled TV (many are now) or PVR or blu-ray player, a PC or even a set-top box. You can connect any of those via HDMI to a spare HDMI socket on your TV.
Either way, whatever you use is probably going to need a software update to be compatible with the netflix application - check with the manufacturer of the device.0
