The £3,000 TV, the latest in the Japanese firm’s Bravia range, is just 9.9mm thick.

It is so thin because tiny LED lights usually illuminating the flat screen from behind have been placed round the sides.

Spokesman Christian Brown said: “Sony is continuously striving to lead the way with advanced innovations in TV technology and cutting edge design. We’re excited to see our customers’ reactions.”
