Stream TV Signal Wirelessly from Aerial Socket?

Hi
I am wanting to re-arrange the layout of my living room, and put a flatscreen TV on a wall that has no access to a TV socket.
I don't want to get a new aerial socket put in, as I reckon it will be a bit of work, and probably involve lifting the flooring.
Can anyone recommend a simple/economic solution if possible.? I don't want to spend too much on it, as I only watch the news these days, and that's about it.
Thanks.

Thanks.
Can you not run an aerial extension lead over the doorway?

Works well for us and no need for smart or 4k tv
Strange suggestion.
Perhaps you meant to post the box and not a Pass.

I think Neil Jones has the simplest solution - just add some staples.
Thats no issue, just go round the door frame, use some plastic trunking like D line trunking rather than rectangular style for the last part from the skirting board (if you wanted it from the skirting board) to the tv.
Buy a Humax fvp-4000t (£180) or Humax FVP-5000T (£210) and install this in a room in your house that has access to a TV socket
Then buy a Humax H3 Espresso (£80) and connect it to your TV . You can then stream live TV and recordings from your Humax FVP-X000T box.
It works over your home network, so uses WiFi and no cables are required, but it would be best if at least one of them is connected to your router via a cable.
