How can we get sky to another room?

We have sky + box in our bedroom because that's the only place it could go without sky fitting wires everywhere internally on show because of the location of the dish. We have been using a video sender which is awful so we have found a way to run wires out of sight. We want to keep the box in the bedroom is it possible to run a twin satellite cable to the living room from the second aerial points on the box? How would we connect the twin wires to the tv? We don't want to have different channels it's only so we can have some tv in the bedroom. We don't want to be messing with the dish as we live in a flat and the woman above made us move the dish to another location despite her giving us permission and it being low down within our property.

The simple solution is a TV-Link, you can get these from Sky, Global, or other outlets.
Assuming your Sky + box has an RF2 output its simply a matter of running a coax lead from the box to the TV in the other room.
A simple magic eye sender controls the Sky box.
Downside is that the sound will only be mono, and the picture standard definition.
Global TV Link.

I'm not very technical, what's mono? Standard definition is fine for us.
