I've always known it as a "telly", and I have family from the South coast, Scotland, the Midlands and London, and live in Yorkshire.
Mind you, my step-dad still calls a radio; "the wireless", so maybe we are a bit backward in the UK! :lol:

Give us Niles before someone gets hurt!

You know that calling yourself a Yank is derogatory? We know you're American, you're from the Big Apple. Other than that, sound as a pound mate.

Seriously though, it's the tellybox for me. I heard it somewhere and I like it, so I take it, I take it.
