Pleased to hear their TV's are good. Their fridge freezers are bloody awful! Good customer service though, that said it needs to be if your £800 appliance fails every 8 months!

I have had both Samsung and Panasonic (present) plasma and I prefer the Panasonic. Never had any repair issues with either.

One thing to do some research on is that almost all of the big manufacturers have 3 levels of each TV (at least here in the US). They sell their lower end ones through the big-box stores and the mid-level and top level more often through specialty audio-video dealers or through quality internet stores.

The pricing can vary quite a bit from top-tier to bottom tier. I can say, IMHO, that there is a difference in picture quality between the levels. On Panansonic plasma, the blacks are much "blacker" on the top tier. The Samsung I had was a lower-tier model and the colors and blacks just not as "rich".

There are a lot of good comparison-reviews available on-line, although it can get pretty confusing to wade through

I bought this Samsung LCD TV from JL last Friday for £299.

So far so good and better than the Alba I borrowed from a friend. The sound and picture quality are much better.
