The DVD/Video will need built in freeview to be able to record anything other than what you are watching you will still be able to play discs/tapes....at least i think im right with that !!

you will need a freeview box for tv...you can tape from this box if your vhs player can be tuned into the box ie av2 setting...but..you will need to keep the freeview box tuned into the station you are recording...easier to buy a hard drive digital recorder they are not too expensive now... get a twin tuner so you can tape one..or two..channels while viewing another...your old vhs/dvd will be a player only ...unless as described above..

You cant "make" your TV digital, but you can plug in a Freeview box which can pickup digital signals and you can watch them on our TV.

So the answer to your first question is you need a FREEVIEW box.

This normally plugs into a SCART socket in the back of your TV.

A video recorder and a DVD player also usually need a scart socket to plug into your TV, but I doubt your TV has 3 scart sockets.

You can buty a device from places like Argos which allow you to plug 3 scart devices into a single box, and then use one plug into the TV.

Then you can switch between whatever device you want to use (freeview, VHS, DVD)
