Page 1 of PC monitor, Cheap easy way to watch Freeview without a PC?

As title, have a new Dell 22" TFT LCD Monitor, can I watch TV (Freeview) using the monitor without a PC connected (i.e. in the Kitchen)? What do I need? (Cheap please).

Thanks in advance. CTTE

What inputs does the Dell have aside from (presumably) VGA and/or DVI?

There are three suitable external tuners here, but I don`t think they are cheap. The only one I could find on Froogle is the AVerMedia DVB-T STB7 at £111.10.

Could a TV Sender be used to transmit from TV in living room to PC Monitor.
If a Tuner is needed, then would probably be better to get a cheap PC mini type barebones or similar with a TV card.
