DO NOT DO IT.
Get a Samsung serif TV and have it on its legs.
Wall mounted TV's.. nope...edit: although the above example doesn't look too bad.

@CYOA you seem to have the thumbs down to that idea but I would also add that wood and coal fires are very dusty and that will not go well with a fancy flat screen telly

So coming closer to buying a TV for the first time and the small living room means the obvious space for it is on the chimney breast. There are alcoved shelves either side. Plug sockets bottom centre of those alcoves.
I'd like a wood burner in due time - it's only a small hole so wouldn't be very big - how much of a problem is that for a TV? Internet is giving me mixed opinions unsurprisingly. Like Christina Aguilera my heart is saying let's but my brain is saying woah hold on a second.
Secondly and far more importantly as I'll almost certainly get one and put it there regardless of the above:
How do I hide the wires? Chase into the plaster and brick? Why isn't there a completely wireless TV already? Don't say projectors.
