That's what I'd use, not a fan of the corkscrew ones myself.

I'll be honest, I've never consciously thought about it before but I don't like have the main light on in my room. It's too bright and I use a £5 desk lamp instead. It has an orange lampshade which gives a nice warm feel to the room. But that's helped by the fact I have nice central heating included in my rent keeping me toasty. I've near enough frozen to death(!) at previous places due to no heating and I can assure you the lighting did not help....

People that don't understand Hue lighting... are just living in the dark ages
Alexa + Harmony remote + Hue lighting = win.
1 press on my Harmony remote will turn on the TV, Sky with preset lights and colours. Voice command to change light on/off, brightness and even colour temp of the light.
I avoided the earlier as it leaves an unlit ring. This bad boy is 3000lumens and needed the max I could find for the room. Make sure you try and find a ceiling joist!
The currys hue starter kit with home mini started a bit of a smart kit splurge. Ended up getting a harmony elite and replacing my fire stick as the old was slow.

I got hue kit purely because the Mrs refuses to use lounge ceiling lights and instead insists on having 5 bloody lamps instead.

A fractal art plaque. Found it by chance while looking for something for a friend at work. Found the sellers direct site https://fractalartworks.com if anybody else was looking for something similar.

Lol, my brother has asked me for it for Christmas. Is it really that bad?
yeah the other bundles had too many racing games never played fallout still got fallout 4 to get through as well why is it rubbish?
i got
fallout
red dead redemption
tekken 7
cars 2
will probably flog the latter two on
the bundles across the board aren't great id rather have no bundle and a cheaper console but the console price alone is ridiculous red dead is worth 50 quid to buy

First off I have NOT played 76, but basically the entire thing is a dumpster fire from Bethesda. Like one of the best Dev implosions ever, and yes, that game is meant to be pretty much terrible.

got the same tv. it's insane how good it is for the money. i went for 55" though as 65" was 50% more money for the circa 40% increase in size iirc. so didn't think it was worth it.
