A standard VGA cable is what you're looking for. Should be able to pick them for a couple of quid in maplins or even pc world.

Just remember that VGA does not carry sound.

Oh, assumed you had a 42 inch HD TV. If it's a standard TV then you will need to go for the scart option which will suck donkey balls as Ste says.
