Would you put a plasma tv

[Twiglett]

on the wall over a high fireplace

or stick it on a stand in an alcove

(3 metre high ceilings)

43"

That's a whopper!

thats a big yin! Find a room for it all on its own, tv room perhaps?

oops 42

oh well thats better!...
itll be bigger than your fireplace!...id def put it on a awall itll take up too much floor space!..just knock a wall out and put the sofas in the hall so you dont get a crick and pretend your in the cinema!..lucky sod wish i could afford a 42in plasma!

get rid of it and get yourself a smaller one and a cabinet to put it in

Get the fireplace taken out and put the telly in it's place?

My DP has bought one of these things too......luckily we have a 'back room' that has always had the telly in it so no issues about over fireplaces or what not.....I do expect someone to come round and sell ice cream thou' (personally I HATE it..)

im more concerned you have a fireplace twig

is it a real fire?

I have a fireplace too

we have five (but only one is still a real fire...)

We've got three in this house.

we've had our 42" plasma TV for almost 3 yrs now - you do get used to them and hardly notice them when they're off. In fact I tend to assume that eveyone has one .

Ours is on a cabinet by the side of the fireplace and takes up a lot less room then the conventional TV that we had before and is less obtrusive

We have a fireplace in lounge, dining room, DS' room, our bedroom (bedroom ones are boarded up)

victorian house

none of them work though

Not over a fieplave because of the heat rising and all that. Didn't think it was safe. Ours is on the wall opposite the fire.
