Connecting Sat box to two tv's

    Hi,
    I have a technisat sat box (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Technisat-HDFS-Freesat-HD-Receiver/dp/B002DPVMXO/ref=wl_it_dp_o?ie=UTF8&coliid=I7TER9HEUIC2F&colid=2XVFHGQPRDKPG)

    It is connect to the TV in my sitting room via HDMI cable. I want to connect it to an old analogue tv in the next room (crt, has scart connection) I was wondering where to get long rgb cables (not sure if this is correct word but the yellow, white and red cables) so that I could connect the receiver to this tv. I would need possibly about 12m or so of cable I'm guessing. Would i need higher quality cable to get signal to travel this distacne? Where would I get cable this long? I assume adding cable junctions (which I have seen when on ebay trying to find long calbe) will reduce quality of signal?

    Will signal travel this far in these cables or should I just go for a wireless option? I was hoping to use a cheaper option than wireless if i could just plug in cables directly?

    Thanks!
