Remote sky veiwing

Head scratchin time!!

I have livingroom with sky box and TV downstair, Bedroom TV directly above the TV downstairs using co-axial connected to get sky upstairs as well.

Problem being a lazy sod, I watch sky from my bed and I want to change channel without having to trail downstairs.

How can I change the sky channels from my bedroom?

(I can take the sky controller upstairs with me but it don`t fire through the floor, Any sort of cheap solution and not a `long pole` anwer please)

Yup, called a TV Link or Magic Eye. Plugs in between the upsaitrs TV and the Sky box and most places liek Maplins etc sell em.
