I'm sure there used to be an rgb interface for those old style monitors. 
Inside the Speccy there are colour difference signals though, and there were 
always tvs that could cope with the higher line speed and slower frame rate 
over there, I read about them but whether anyone still has a working one is 
anyones guess
I did wonder if one of those monitor conversion boxes you can get for  tvs 
these days might be able to help.
