new pc monitor do not want speakers no more????

Ok. Ive just got a new portable tv, its a wharfdale. I have swapped around the tv scart plug so now im using it. I have 2 external speakers which I can do do without with as there is a decent speaker in the tv. How do I go around removing the speakers and getting me tv speakers to work instead. Thanks.

    Ive just checked in the rear of the tv and there is a little hole for a 'jack plug'? which says audio out and obviously in the back f my pc is a same plug hole which my speakers are connected to. Im guessing I need a jack plug right? to put into the rear of tv and to the plug hole where my speakers are? Is that correct.

    If so the connecter i require is called a jack plug?

    Afraid that won't work as you will be connecting 2 outputs together and you'll probably end up damaging at least one, if not both, of them. Does your TV have an audio input? Sometimes this will be a jack socket while sometimes this will be on red and white phono sockets. If it does, you'll be able to do what you want with the appropriate cable.

    You need an audio input on the tv - sometimes this may be near the Vga socket - as previously used that when I had a pc connected to the tv (before changed to a raspberry pi as a htpc )..

    How are you currently connecting the pc to the tv?

    im connecting the tv using the blue coloured lead little bit like a small scart lead with screws at each end.
