First of all I am sorry if this question is covered somewhere already, I have looked but not found the answer.

I am fairly technically challenged and last time I had a new TV paid for the installation, but this time want to have a go at saving a few quid.

Tomorrow we are taking delivery of a Panasonic TH-P50G30B, our first HD television. We want to connect it to a V+ box also we have an old panasonic DMR ES20 DVD recorder, (until we can get a Blu ray player) so can anyone help with what leads need to go where please?

Do I have to have both HDMI and scart from the V+ box ?If so where do they go to please?
How do I connect the old DVD recorder?

Also can I also connect from our TV ariel that is on the chimney, so if the cable goes down at any time we can watch the built in Freeview? If so does that just go into the TV somewhere?

I will be very grateful for any help here as I'm starting to panic a bit now.
