    No! The proper contractor's answer is to hire the full female cast of your favourite pron film to give a live show in your living room.

    On FBI stakeouts they use a giant telephoto lens not much smaller than that.

    Costs about £60,000, but I forget the model name. (Got a link on my PC at home if anyone is interested.)

    Shut it Value Droid.

    I know you peasants don't have these issues to worry about, but being rich presents it's own problems, like finding really big TV's, hiring staff, fixing leaks in the swimming pool, etc.

    Alternatively where does TV glasses technology currently stand? Totally immersive 3D TV plus 3D sound, for about 10 pence?

    You can't see a thing if you've got no ears.

    I agree with the HD Projector if it's for a dedicated cinema room. Not very good for everyday use in the daylight, but awesome in a dedicated room, and good value for money...

    You probably need to go with an industrial / commercial plasma panel rather than looking for a TV with tuner. If you have the money Panasonic will sell you a 152" one. If you don't, they do a number of smaller models. I saw the 103" one in Harrods or somewhere for around £50k IIRC.

    What's the biggest LCD/LED HD TV you can buy (not in some lab in Japan/Korea)?

    Money of course, as usual, is no object.
