Chav? Yes? Buy the biggest no name brand you can persuade the oik in Curry's to let you have on credit. Then admire your 68" TV in your tiny living room.

There was a formula, used for the old cathodic ray tube TV :
distance = 6 x TV size
(if your TV is 36", the distance should be 6 x 36" = 18 ft)
A new LCD or plasma TV, however, does not have this distance restriction anymore because it generates no dangerous e-ray... in theory, at least. ;)

The same rule of thumb applies to viewing painted pictures and television screens. You should be about 3 times the diagonal dimension of the picture. This will be close enough to focus on detail but still be far enough to be able to take in the whole picture without having to turn your head.

Screen size = x, carpet =y, sofa = m, you = 5, coffee table = Ikea.
Thus: x + y/5 *ikea = Telly.

No, but water boils at 212°F. I won't "exceed it's boiling point" unless it is under pressure.
