you'll need to check what output you have on the laptop. If you have s-video you can get a lead from maplins for quite cheap should be s-video and phono to scart you'll probably also need a 3.5" jack to phono as well.

If your laptop doesn't have s-video the only other option i can think of is to connect it via vga to your tv but that depends on whether the tv has a vga or dvi input

I purposely bought a LCD tv with a vga input on it so i could use it as monitor for my PC. if it get a lap top i can plug that in too all you need to get is a male to male vga cable i go tit off ebay for £3. and male to male sound lead. which i got for £2. its brilliant.
