The television is one of the easiest household costs to ignore because it feels small compared with heating, rent, food, or broadband. But from July, UK households will be looking again at everyday electrical use as the energy price cap rises and small habits become more noticeable on annual bills.

The reported £42.89 figure should not be treated as a new TV tax or a separate charge. It is an estimated yearly running cost based on electricity use, and the exact amount depends on the size of the TV, how long it is used, the model’s efficiency, and the tariff a household pays.
