There's a number of ways you can do this, here's the simplest

YOu have two scarts on the TV. Find out if they accept RGB ( Manual will tell you) RGB give the best signal.

Get some reasonable quality fully wired SCART leads (`~€20 each. Maplins have good range)

Connect the Sky box 'TV' Scart socket to the input SCART socket on the DVDR ( this allows you to record using the RGB signal)

Connect the DVD/VCR to the VCR scart on the Sky box

Connect the DVDR output Scart to the TVs RGB scart.

You may want to connect your aeriel to the RF input on the DVDR and the RF output to the TV aeriel input. This will allow you to record terrestrial TV channels also

Best of luck
