Philips ultra-wide TV HAVE you bought a widescreen TV only to feel slightly disappointed when watching a Hollywood blockbuster to see black bars above and below the picture?

That's because all standard widescreen televisions measure 16ins x 9ins, but many big budget films are even wider. The only way you can see the entire picture is to endure those annoying black bars.

Philips believes it has the answer in a stunning new ultra-widescreen telly which measures 21ins x 9ins. Packed with all the latest picture and sound processing goodies, this TV really will bring Hollywood to your living room.

The 56in 21:9 Cinema LCD is expected to hit our shores in June with a £3,500 price tag.
