Default Daft question but someone might know.

Having looked at the rear of my TV i find no audio outputs at all, only
inputs, but there is an optical output, i am informed that this can
indeed be sent to a suitable Amp and the sound exited to speakers, just
to find a suitable amp now.


I am, I have to say, surprised that the TV doesn't have a pair of phonos for
left and right analogue audio, the extra cost in manufacture would be small.
You can buy small DACs with an optical input for relatively little money,
but it's still going to cost you a lot more than it would have cost the TV
manufacturer to include the circuitry within the TV.
