New TV conundrum

Ok, so I have recently had the kitchen redone, and as part of sorting it out, I ran a sat cable from the dish to the wall and put a poper socket there as well thinking it would be easy to buy a new 32~40 inch TV to hang there that has a FreeSat tuner built in.

So roll on the work being completed.

Initially, I thought about taking the 40" 5 year old TV (UE40ES6300UXXU) from the lounge which has a freesat tuner and mounting that to the wall, and then going out and getting a larger TV of similar ilk that also has a Freesat tuner (in case of binning off sky). I then decided that actually, the current TV does the job and is a good enough size, and I can save myself some money by going for a 32" that would be ok for the wall in the kitchen....

However, 32" smart TVs with Freesat built in, don't seem to exist anymore...

So I guess I am now back at looking at maybe replacing the TV in the front room.

What do I do!? I don't really want to spend more than £600 if I have to get a new TV for the front room, and if I get a new one for the kicthen instead of replacing the existing TV, I don't want to go over £300.

Do 32" freesat smart TVs not exist anymore???

Edit:
I guess maybe I just go for something like this (http://www.richersounds.com/product/tv---all/samsung/ue49ku6400/sams-ue49ku6400) which is a larger/newer version of the TV I have at the moment?

Yeah, I don't think a Freesat box is the way to go here. I don't think they are going to be small enough to mount behind the TV on a wall, so it leaves me with no choice but to get a bigger TV for the lounge.

Thanks for the comments.

I think I have pretty much convinced myself that the UE49KU6400 is the product I am looking for. Its not the biggest bestist spec, but is matching my needs and size, plus more importantly, price point of about £550.
 
So I went for the KU6400 in the end. Managed to get one on Richersounds in the "box opened" state for £493. :)

Better than kick in the teeth, and no flipping black friday deals :(
