## Claims

### Claim 1

A display apparatus comprising:
a wall-mountable television display unit configured to display an image, the television display unit comprising a display panel, and a rear chassis provided at a rear side of the display panel;
a control device for controlling the television display unit, the control device separate and distinct from the television display unit, the control device comprising:
a control section; and
an image processing section controlled by the control section,
wherein the image processing section is configured to process image signals and to output the processed image signals from the control device to the television display unit; and
a coupling member configured to directly couple an exterior rear surface of the rear chassis of the television display unit and an outer surface of the control device to each other when the television display unit is mounted to a vertical support surface,
wherein the exterior rear surface of the rear chassis includes a wall-mount member configured to directly mount the television display unit to the vertical support surface, wherein the wall mount member is disposed on the exterior rear surface of the rear chassis and above the control device on the exterior rear surface of the rear chassis.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The display apparatus according to claim 1, wherein an exterior rear surface of the control device faces the vertical surface when mounted.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)
