It has DVI socket!
Try a DVI to HDMI connection cable. I have used one onceIt has DVI socket!
You will probably not get audio, only picture, that way.
So you need to use the Audio L/R in of the TV (that are used in a DVI PC scenario).
Depending on your apple tv version you might need a converter...a DAC (can easily costs as much as the apple tv / even more).
There are converters HDMI to scart as well (hd fury, if I remember correctly).
All in all no fun to set this up.
Easier to get another TV ;-))

For audio you can use this converter, it is cheap and works perfect:http://www.amazon.de/Digital-Toslink-Analog-stereo-Konverter/dp/B004O2P0CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1379497281&sr=8-1&keywords=digital+toslink+spdif+zu+analog+stereo+2xrca+audio+konverterGreetingsRäuber
Great!
I did not know it was availabe at this low price.
So, shopping list:
HDMI - DVI cable
Digitial / Toslink SPDIF cable
Converter as above
RCA cables
Please let us know about the results!

Many Thanks for that will start getting sorted !Cheers guys
Which model ATV do you have? If you have ATV2 (Black) follow the suggestions so far.
If you have the ATV1 (Silver) there is a much easier way to connect to your TV using ATV-Flash from firecore.
See here for an old posting if you have the ATV1 andlinkto how easy it is to use the ATV-Flash software. ( You can make the wor-around happen yourself if you link! But too technical for me)
You would then just need one of these and the cables and you'll get sound and pictures over scart. I use this with my BeoVision 5 (SD) and Silver ATV. And it works really well.
