We have one in the lounge and freeview in the bedroom

Can we just unplug the USB thingie and move it to the other telly & tune it in?

Do I need to retune the Lounge Telly when I move it back or will it remember?

Just unplug it, plug it into the bedroom tv hdmi slot and select the hdmi channel on your remote. No tuning or returning needed.

It just plugs and plays once set up.
We move ours.

it didn't work because the hdmi input isn't long enough for the stick bit - there is a bit of TV in the way!!

Poop!

I got a little extender from Amazon - works perfectly.

yep off to Currys to see if they have one!

I can watch the laptop in the bedroom but the TV would be nicer

If I bought a second stick thingie could I use the same account I wonder? Off to read the website!

Yep you can have two from the same account.
The adapter will be cheaper from Amazon if you have a fire stick you may already have the adapter in the box.
