Some phones can plug into big screen monitors as can computers, so you can still watch the Doctor with no TV ;)

On balance, the phone can go, though there's not much between the two.

I voted pie, meaning "neither", or "are you frikkin insane?"

I need my phone and, while I don't watch a lot of it, the TV is a valuable brat pacifier for that essential couple of hours peace and quiet. Without it I would have killed one of them by now.

I can't give up the TV. It's not so much for what is broadcast either, it's what I have connected to it. Without my Xbox, PS3, Blu-Ray/DVD, etc I'd be lost. Imagine all that time spare. I could learn new things, spend more time with the family, pick up new hobbies, get out more. Nightmare!

Bin the phone, keep the TV.

Mrs. V. has just made a good point... Give up mobiles, as we have 5 of the damned things in the household, (me, her and the three little pigs, I mean kids) and guess who pays the bills, (even though Lil K is supposed to be giving her mum the money to pay for her 'phone) :roll:
