    If you buy an Apple TV you can play it wirelessly to the TV. And I think they just dropped the prices of the box so they're pretty cheap now.

    Or I'd you just want a cable, try this: http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MD826ZM/A/lightning-digital-av-adapter

    Worth knowing that some apps will intentionally block mirroring or streaming to TV, and I have a feeling Sky Go is one of them...

    Sky Go isn't possible to view through Apple TV or any other device. They control it to ensure that such a system isn't possible.

    Boccy is right, Sky Go dosn't work through Airplaying from an Apple device to an Apple TV or Raspberry Pi. The HDMI Cable option dosn't work either. You can airplay RTE Player, 4OD (I think) and generally any other movies etc from the internet, but Sky Go dosn't.

    Sky Go definitely not, if you do find a way however please share!

    On a different platform though and of possibly no relevance to your query, Sky Go will be, apparently, coming to the Playstation 3 & 4 before the end of the year.
