Who here watches tv in bed?
How long do you spend IN YOUR BEDROOM watching tv?
How big is the tele?
Do you turn it off and then sleep or do you read a book before bed?

And how do you get comfortable watching tv in bed?

Sometimes
Ummmmm, 20 mins in the morning while I'm getting ready - stick the news on: Stick it on and set the timer for thirty mins while I faff around getting ready for bed then it goes off and fall asleep if I haven't already.
46"
Timer as above
Lie down - beds are good for that.

Maybe up to a couple of hours a night after work when I'm on shift, less in my time off.
Turn off and go straight to sleep.
40" TV. From memory I think its at the minimum recommended distance for the size.

Nope. Won't have a TV in the bedroom. Spend enough time in front of the idiot box without doing it in bed!

Watching telly in the bedroom?

Nope.

Don't have telly in bedroom.

Only have one telly and that's a 21" cathode ray job in the living room.

If it wasn't for the kids I wouldn't have one in the house.

I would struggle to get out of bed at the weekend if there was a tv in my bedroom

Never had a telly in the bedroom, no desire to do so.

I find i enjoy it on holiday as a change.

Nope, don't have one in bedroom. I have a padded headboard though, so comfort wouldn't be an issue if I did.

I watch TV in bed in winter regularly, the missus likes to go to bed around 9 and I'm happy to do so as it warm and comfy, I've no aerial in the room but have a roku and watch stuff like Fast n Loud, Roadkill, American Pickers, Auction Hunters, gold Rush etc etc or Youtube for an hour or two whilst she sleeps.

I don't watch it at through summer though as I'm normally outside in the garden/garage till late then go straight up to sleep.

Just a cheap unbranded 36" tv, up there, it'll do.

40" TV and I probably spend about 5 hours a week or less watching it, it's mainly used for Xbox or PS4 which is around 10hrs a week.

Also have my main PC in the bedroom which has a 24" screen.

We've got what must be the smallest flat screen TV that Tesco sells. I think that in about 6 months it's been turned on twice.

Waste of space, but not enough space for a regular TV due to the shape of the room/roof.
