TV in your bedroom?

[Mr Trophy]

Do all you powerfully built Director's have TV's in your bedroom?

Moving house next month and decided we're not going to put one in the bedroom.

[HTP99]

Nope; got rid of it 4 or 5 years ago, it was an old CRT that just sat in the corner, it was hooked up to Virgin but we never watched it, if I had gone modern and whacked one on the wall we still wouldn't have watched it, don't miss it at all.

[StuTheGrouch]

I have a TV in my bedroom, hooked up to my spare Playstation. Mostly watch Netflix in bed

[trickywoo]

Depends if you have two rooms with TVs in already.

I would struggle with just one TV but ideally the second one wouldn't be in the bedroom.

Having said that a weekend lay in with the telly on is nice.

[schmunk]

Do it.

[sjg]

Not since I moved out of my parents.

No chance, bedroom is for sleeping and sex... nothing else.

[johnwilliams77]

Yes, it is a smart tv for movies/netflix

[DWS]

Yep. 42" flat screen. Don't know the last time it was switched on, or if it even works! Or even if its plugged in!

Before kids that is exactly what we used to do. Now days it only gets used for a bit of CBeebies if they come in early and even then after 10-15 minutes of one or both of them fidgeting around in our bed we're ready to head downstairs. Also used to watch it sometimes in the evening retiring to bed early to watch a few episodes from a box set or some such, now we just go to sleep as soon as we manage to get to bed

I suspect we'll have TV in our loft conversion bedroom when that gets done next year. I'd quite like to put something 50" plus up there depending on how the final space looks but I'm not so sure the missus will be keen

[DavidJG]

No way! We have one TV set only, in a room used only for TV / Hifi. Our main sitting room doesn't have a TV (although it does have a music system). In all honesty, for the amount of time the TV is switched on, I'm not entirely sure why we keep it.

[Impasse]

Yes. It stays on all night.

Kitchen wall and family room wall, so think that would be enough?

[AndrewEH1]

NO!

Although I do watch things on my laptop in bed on lazy mornings/cold nights!

[MDMetal]

Yup, big tv downstairs, smaller wall mounted one upstairs, we use it for Netflix mostly or flicking through things before bed. Nice when you fancy watching something but your half nodding off.

[Eddh]

No, it's caaaancciillll.

[zedx19]

I have a son who is 3 in January, another son who is 2 in April and my wife is due to give birth on 9th February. We now have a huge TV in the bedroom...

Really? I sometimes use mine for reading a bike magazine.
But no telly. We hardly watch the one we have.

[Ali Chappussy]

Yep, a 32" Samsung Smart flatscreen hooked up to a SKY HD box.

Great on a Saturday night when 'er indoors is watching XCraptor and Strictly, I do love my Spanish football.

[SS2.]

Yep, 32" or similar Samsung LED (Freeview only) - helps me get to sleep, and I quite like waking up to half an hour of BBC news before taking the dogs out.

Just finished a refurb at the back of the house and, to complement the TV we already have in the lounge, we fitted a 46" TV out back with Sky Multiroom (or whatever it's called these days).

If you don't share a lot of common ground as far as viewing choices are concerned, it's clear to see how two people could very easily start leading entirely separate lives whilst living under the same roof !
