Connecting DVD to an OLD TV

Hope everyone had a good Christmas. Now for the question, my Dad got given an Alba dvd for xmas, problem is he has an old TV with no scart, and from what I can gather the dvd player only has a scart. Is there an adapter available to go from scart to the normal aerial input on a tv, if so where from?

Keene Electronics sell video convertors that do this. They accept a video and audio feed and modulate it to feed into a normal arial socket. You will need a scart to phono lead to connect the DVD player to the converter. Prob. the best to go for is item KRFT, which has arial in/out connectors, so will still allow normal TV viewing.

Note:
if your dad has a video with twin scarts attached as well, then you may be able to use the video to do the conversion for you.
