Darren: DVD players should be connected to the tv directly- your current setup won't work.

Your new tv will have generally 3 hdmi connections, plus a scart, plus rgb (model make would help) - the phono option vanished this year. If the DVD has hdmi, use that. If it does not, then use the rgb connection for picture and the RCA audio outputs for sound. You can get a kit for this to allow you to plug the scart on the DVD in on eBay etc.
however, much the easiest thing to do I'd to buy a new blu ray player - £60 would do you well, which will use hdmi instead, be smart, and play DVD/blu ray.
I always warn customers about connecting up lots of scart equipment to new tv's - they now regard hdmi as standard, with scart as a legacy connection.

Of course if you get sky hd you can use the scart!
