Boot into safe mode or single user mode, so you get a command

Then
you could try checking your dmesg / syslog etc, and maybe
uninstalling
any
nvidia drivers?

My Google searches turn up lots of problems with Nvidia. This
laptop
has onboard Intel drivers.
Can anybody point me in the proper direction?
The command lshw -c video will tell you which chip it is trying to
use.
There are lots of problems with the nouveau driver, especially
with
older Nvidia chips.

This laptop is running an Intel chipset. The driver is i915.
It's strange that things work during boot showing the Ubuntu
logo then
just stops around the time the desktop should appear

I have perused the lists as I can boot and run without the HDMI
cable.
Nothing stood out. I'll have to peek at it in a bit to see if it has
any Nvidia drivers. The laptop is all Intel chipset, but it's worth a
look
Well does it work if you boot without the HDMI cable, then plug it in
after
it boots?

That sends the screen on the laptop to a blank (possibly flashing) and
the TV saying it has no incoming signal
Looks like the same bug being reported here.

They are attributing it to problems with Nvidia drivers as you would,
but
it might be a more general problem. I don't see any solution in the
thread, but a few had luck just turning the power on and off on the
external monitor.

Hadn't thought of that...on my way downstairs
It's worth noting that HDMI issues on dual-GPU laptops on linux are
common and not necessarily relevant to single GPU problems. It has to do
with problems handing off control of the display from one GPU to another.
You've confirmed that your laptop only has the single GPU but your
symptoms are similar so SEO starts running amok when you run searches.
Could be going down the wrong rabbit hole so taking everything with a
grain of salt is a good idea.
