Mark it is a Samsung UE40C5100 LED TV as I said its connected by a scart but I want to run the sound from the tv through the surround sound but all I can find is a optical output

You are correct in saying there is no audio output on the other than the optical.

I'm surprised that any surround system has not got a digital input on it though... what is the surround system?

If it has a headphone socket, you may be able to use that with the right lead.
Some amps take an optical IN.
