The bottom half of my television screen has gone blue! The horses at the Derby have blue legs (and so does Clare Balding :eek:), all the tennis players are playing on a blue court. On other channels I've got a bear advertising blue rice, a woman tossing her blue hair around, soldiers wading through a blue muddy stream...

It an 18 months old JVC so shouldn't be worn out yet, any ideas please?!

    Are you using the set with an external box, Sky, Freeview or Virgin? If so check the Scart connection is sound.
    If you are on the internal tuner you have a faulty TV, what technology is it?
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    It's on Virgin, just check all the connections and they're in place. Sorry I don't understand 'what technology is it?' - plain English for idiots, please :o

    Tried resetting the Virgin box?

    does the picture look OK if you go into any of the setup screens?
    How do I add a signature?

    Now why didn't I try that? It always works when the comp plays up ;)
    We now have the right colours in the right places, mind you the horses at Cheltenham did look becoming with blue stockings :D

    Thank you very much :)
