Settle this for me, in your house DO you or do you NOT...

Leave the TV on standby? As in if you know you're not going to be using it again for the next few hours / days do you switch it off via remote control or do you switch off the actual plug?

Go...

standby even overnight as it records stuff

Always on standby because it's on the same plug sockets as the wifi!
my parents always turn theirs off at the wall.

On standby. If away for a few days then I switch it off at the wall.

It uses so little power on standby - works out at about 4kwh for the entire year.

Bit of both here.

Plug off, sometimes forget though

Standby. There's no way I'm digging down the back of the tv cabinet every night to get to the plug.

Standby, even if I go on holiday

We just use the remote

Standby. The plug is too hard to access easily.

Not sure I could even find the plug - its behind another cabinet and many wires. So always on standby

Turned off. I don't watch much TV.

Switched off at the wall. We only use it in the evenings for the most part.

Switched off at the wall every night and if we go out. It is only usually left on standby if we are likely to be using it in the next couple of hours.

Only the guest bedroom TV gets turned off at the plug, but it’s a WiFi plug so we can turn it on and off from our phones. No other TV gets turned off at the plug, mostly because the plugs aren’t easily accessible.

On standby 24/7 365. For the sake of approx. 60p a year saving I'm not constantly rooting around for the plug. I'm frugal but that's ridiculous!

Never occurred to me that people are routinely switching it off at the wall! I just click on and off with the remote

Off by the remote but not unplugged. My husband is a retired firefighter and there's not much we are allowed to leave on.

Switch off using button on TV. Only on standby if coming back to it in an hour or two.

Off at the wall, but I have OCD.

I unplug it at night. It would be a pain to keep doing it during the day though.

Standby

Depends on the telly. If you go over 55 inches, stand by costs more, as does general running of the thing.

We have the tv socket on a timer. It's on 6pm to midnight. Not entirely sure why. It's a DH thing.

Just remote, have never switched it off at the wall and didn’t realise that was a thing!

We turn ours off with the remote. It's only ever turned off at the wall if the Sky box needs rebooting.
