Checked the aerial is still plugged in?

Do you get picture with the DVD or Play Station?

Running a Freeview Box?

Maybe the plasma and oven both suffered a westernly great draw-related death

At a guess, I'd say you've lost the picture... :yes:

I'm helpful like that...

Samsung are pretty cool, although you may be without a TV for a few weeks.

Our 40" LCD TV was way past its standard warranty when it lost its picture sometimes, but Samsung still replaced it with a newer model for the mere cost of $80 to bring in the techie for a look.

p.S our one worked if you left it to heat up...ie started everytime with no picture and was back to normal in 20 mins of being on.
