Suitable tv

I'm looking for advice regarding a new TV for my parents. My father becomes very muddled by technology! We're looking for a TV that is reasonably straightforward to use, has a subtitle option and the ability to record programmes. Any recommendations very gratefully received. TIA.

How good is your mum at learning how to use new technology?

My MIL has dementia and can barely remember how to switch the TV on and change channel these days.

If your mum can't manage it you may be wasting your money.

Mum's ok! But I think anything to high spec would be wasted.
