    You can watch Sky Go on an Xbox or PS3 or PS4 if you have one of those in the bedroom.

    This is a good option. But you can only watch certain channels.

    Wireless options are hit and miss depending on your own home, items such as stone or concrete walls or floors, can interfere or stop them working altogether. Best option is to run the cable either a coax cable with a magic eye or a cat6 with hdmi converter with return path and use of a magic eye....can be expensive but as I said only proper reliable way...

    Cat 6 with HDMI convert how would it work exactly?

    Hdmi cable comes from sky box to a hd splitter which unuse to send first signal back to your tv. Second hdmi feed go into a hdmi convertor from which you run a cat6 cable to the second room where u deconvert it back to hdmi at the other end giving you a full hd picture and by use of a cat6 u can use a magic eye to control the sky box...its a expensive solution but the best for perfect picture on a secondary tv

    You can use the sky plus all to control your Sky box. It'll save you getting a magic eye if you are going down this road.

    Thanks all for the help! Ended up getting a one4all wireless and works like a charm to be honest! Changing channels works too. I'd say on a bigger TV you would notice picture quality but on small 22" good quality.
