You could try something like this DVB receiver here but obviously it depends where you are in relation to the nearest transmitter while on the road. You would probably need to have a rooftop or caravan type aerial connected to it unless you were quite near to a transmitter as digital either works or it doesn't and the supplied small aerial only works when the signal is strong.

If possible, you could get a WiFi adapter to plug into your USB and connect to a nearby hotspot

Or you can get a freeview type adapter and find a way to affix an aerial well as suggested above.

You'll need one hell of a setup if you want to watch England next year.

if your laptop has usb 2 you can get a haupauge stick, plug in a half decent (not too big aerial) and digital tv is in your cab, item 120186747229 on ebay at the moment is going cheap, no it's not me selling it, I have a differant version and it comes with a little aerial like a phone aerial on a car....it's rubbish, the aerial not the stick.

or just buy a 12v 14inch portable telly?
you might need a dropper from your 24v lorry electrics? unless you have a 12v outlet socket?

or maybe?
