You'll need to provide some more information: as a start, what's the distance involved and which Sky television system is it?

Hi. The glass tv and WiFi will be about 20 metres away. Can run a cable underground from main house from broadband. Need to know how/what will work inside summerhouse

The best solution would be an ethernet cable (outdoor grade or even armoured) from the router in the house to an ethernet switch in the summerhouse. Then put an ethernet cable to the television set if it's in the summerhouse and another to a separate wireless access point.
Glass television sets and Stream pucks don't act as wireless hotspots themselves.
