I have BT Infinity Broadband and have signed up for the free BT Sport channels available via broadband/laptop.

Is it possible to link my laptop (via a lead of some sort!!!) to my Sony Bravia TV so that I can view the sport on my TV screen?
It has taken about 4,500,000,000 (4.5 billion) years for the Earth to form as it is now .........
and it'll only take about another 100 years for mankind to really **** it up!!!!

    If not then use VGA but don't expect a very good picture.
    You can of course get it on the Sky platform, or via YouView.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    3 USB ports and 1 - 15 pin socket on my laptop and a 15 pin socket in the back of the TV marked "PC In", so would assume that if this is the connection to make, it would carry visual & audio feeds.
