Re: new tv & sky

Possible problems:

1. Your SCART lead is falling apart. It happens, especially with cheap ones.
2. You're using an old SCART lead with a switch to control which direction it's sending the signal, and you have it switched the wrong way round.
3. You're pushing the wrong buttons on your Toshiba telly and therefore not checking the correct input channel for the Sky box.
4. The Sky box has a setting that turns SCART output on or off, and it's currently turned off.

I have a sneaking suspicion its likely to be (4), but I don't have a Sky HD box so I can't check whether such a setting even exists.
