    Patsy,

    You will need the SCART/AV adaptor shown in the photo above. The scart end needs to be inserted into the SCART output of the freeview box. You will then need the AV cable also shown in the photo above. It has a yellow (video) connector at both ends, and white/red (audio left, right) connectors at both ends. This will connect from the adaptor to your TV.

    Also it is possible to buy this cable without the need for an adaptor, i.e. SCART-to-AV. This may possibly help:

    Of course, I may just be talking b****cks!

    wonka is correct Patsy, I would suggest getting that displayed adapter, as the linked one from wonka will probably cost more than your Freeview Receiver !!!!!

    Good luck...;)
