Unless you have a new TV that allows you to download the Netflix app you'll need some kind of device to act as your conduit. Like BD I use a video game console but you can also use certain types of Blu-ray player and you can buy a device called a Roku which will offer up other services but I'm unaware if it is available in Ireland.

You could use your laptop, but then you'll need either a VGA to VGA cable or an HDMI cable. The HDMI is the better option as you can then use your TV speakers, whereas if you go the VGA route your sound will come through your laptop speakers, with your TV essentially becoming your monitor.
