If anyone is interested, I've just bought this Slimport adaptor.
It does just what it says on the tin. When you connect it your screen is replicated to the TV. It isn't just video playback, it's the whole desktop, and note that it locks the phone into landscape mode while it's connected. You can plug your charger into the adaptor so the battery doesn't run down while you're watching films.
I'm not sure I'll use the adaptor much, but I can see my brother, who's a teacher, using it for playing videos to the class. My 11 year old niece will love it because having to put DVDs into a player is so yesterday
