Connecting Freeview TV?!?!!!

I need to buy a new Tv and DVD player and would like to sort this out so that i can watch the freeview channels.

I don't have an aerial socket in the wall of my room, can i still receive freeview?

I know you can buy TV's with the freeview tuners in now but how do i get the signal, is an indoor aerial enough?

Any help is much appreciated!

    Yes you can use an indoor aerial, but you do need to live in a strong signal area for it to work though. One i use is the one for all flat aerial, comes with a powered signal booster.

    It depends how strong the signal is in your area whether it would work with an indoor aerial.

    Generally results using an internal aerial will be disappointing and subject to interference from impulsive noise. Enter your details into this website to get an idea of what aerial is required in your location.
