If you've ever been a fan of the show Friends, you may remember a scene when Joey Tribbiani (played by Matt LeBlanc), finds out that the woman he's talking to not only has never seen an episode of the Soapy award-winning drama Days of Our Lives... but doesn't even own a TV. Upon hearing this he asks: "What's all your furniture pointed at?" and, years later, our question remains the same.

It's no question that across the last century the television became one of the most essential objects in a household, a fact that has only gone up in the 24 years since. Last September, our very own RadioTimes.com Screen Test found that watching TV can make you happier, decrease anxiety and improve emotional connections, among many other benefits.

So, with the TV proved to be a, frankly, indispensable part of our day-to-day, we think it only right that we find you ways of saving money on it. After all, who said essential has to mean expensive?

While a TV is never going to be cheap purchase, there are always deals and sales periods to take advantage of. Across the different retailers and technology brands such as Currys, Amazon and Samsung, there's a ton of offers to be found, so we've decided to group them all.

Below, you'll find our picks for the top TV deals going on this month, with savings across a range of sizes, prices and qualities. Just remember that these offers won't last for long so you've got to be switched on and snatch them up while you can.

Now, just sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.

How often should you replace a TV?

Most TVs have a lifespan of around seven to 10 years.

You'll probably notice when the time comes, as your device will start to have slower connectivity to the internet or, perhaps, the sound will dip a bit.

When is the best time to buy a TV?

There's a lot of debate about when is the best month to buy a TV. Some publishers argue January and February is the ideal time, what with New Year's sales and all the latest tech releases coming out.

However, there's also an argument to be made for summer, as you'll have events like Amazon Prime Day to help lower the costs.

Then, of course, there's the infamous Black Friday sales period in November, where we've often seen massive savings on TVs. Honestly, if you're looking for a big price drop it might be worth waiting until then, but if not there's still plenty of opportunities to save now.

What is the best brand of TV to buy in the UK?

According to Which? the leading brands for TVs are Samsung, LG, Panasonic, Philips and Sony. However, you can also find great quality devices from the lower-priced companies such as Hisense or Amazon, who last year released a new range of Fire TVs.

Ultimately, most brands these days will come with high quality devices in a wide selection of sizes, plus they'll likely have all the different streaming apps and services stored in an easy-to-use home screen. So what you buy really depends on how far you want to go in terms of sound and screen resolution.

If you're looking for the top of the top, you'll want a TV with an OLED (organic light-emitting diode) or QLED screen (Quantum Dot based LEDs), 8K or 4K resolutions and Dolby Atmos sound. If you're not as worried, Full or Ultra HD will do the trick and you can always up the sound quality with a speaker or soundbar.
