Wireless TV ariel extension ?

Does anyone know if there's such a thing as a wireless tv ariel extension ?
I have a kids room with no TV point which means they're in the lounge constantly. I have a TV and digibox for their room, but the portable areal doesn't get a strong enough signal for the digibox to work. I've even tried a boosted portable areal.
I can't run an areal through.
Can I send the signal from the lounge wirelessly to the kids room ?

If you have a freeview/sky/cable box in the lounge you can transmit the signal that produces but you'll have to watch the same in both rooms.

Argos have some fairly cheap but if it's a cable box then you may have to be careful which one you buy depending on the box model.

Silly question why can you not run an ariel cable?

I think your best option is to put the digibox (I assume you mean Freeview box) in the lounge & connect the AV output to a wireless video sender such as this one http://www.practicalpc.co.uk/reviews...xsuperwand.htm

The remote control extender will allow the channels to be changed via the unit connected to the TV in the bedroom.
