If I were to buy a TV, what would I need to get all the standard channels/freeview on it?
I'm a basic bitch TV kinda guy. Basic TVs have Freeview or Freesat built in now. You just connect the aerial up like in the old days and they auto-tune the channels.
If you want to add YouTube, iPlayer etc, it's probably easiest to stick a Chromecast in the back and use your phone to control it. I've never found smart TVs with the apps built in very easy to use in comparison.

Any TV with a YouTube app I've come across has been happy to link to my phone or tablet for control. Also most seem to have a USB port which let's you use a driverless USB keyboard, which solves the main issue of trying to type on an on-screen keyboard with a laggy cursor

I appreciate this is one of the more stupid questions asked here but…
If I were to buy a TV, what would I need to get all the standard channels/freeview on it? Some sort of box attached to the internet? I’ve not owned a telly in 15+ years, back in the day you had that cable which was attached to your aerial but they don’t use them any more. Do they just need an internet connection?
