A couple moved into a tiny, old cottage and deliberately left their television at the wife's parents' house, intending to retrieve it later but never feeling the need. The cottage's period character makes large modern black-screen TVs visually intrusive, and even art-style Frame TVs feel anachronistic. Living without a television led to more reading, country walks and board games. Samsung's green Serif TV presents a design-led alternative that suits a rural interior. A modest discount to £749 increases the temptation to buy despite previous choices to live TV-free.
People tend to eye you suspiciously when you tell them you don't have a TV. 'But what do you do'? they cry. 'How do you relax?' When my wife and I moved into our new cottage, we left the TV at her parents' place, with vague plans to pick it up later. But months later, we've yet to feel compelled to collect it.
Part of the reason is aesthetic - we've moved into a tiny old Hobbit house cottage, and a big black slab would inevitably dominate whichever room we put it in. There's no room for 4K monitor in our house, and while the best Frame TVs might promise to blend in, let's face it - they're hardly period pieces.

You see, this TV is GREEN. Which means it'll fit oh-so-perfectly in our rural cottage. Which means we probably need one for each room. You know what? I'm starting to suspect I'm not such a righteous person after all. I've seen a nice-gadget, and my principles have gone out of the window. But it's beautiful, and it's green, and it's £50 off at Samsung, down from £799 to 749. I bloody love TVs.
