Plasma TV fell on my cat and now dog under threat

Hi all,

Before we start, I'd just like to say that the title was just an attention grabber - no cats were harmed during the making of this post.

I purchased a LG plamsa tv approx 2 years ago from richer sounds. It is located in my games room (which seemed like a good idea at the time but in retrospect has been a complete waste of money - but it looks good), and if it has been on for more than 50 hours in total, I will eat my left arm and right leg.

It has now developed a fault - a vertical line has appeared on the left hand side of the screen, which is pathetic considering the usage the tv has had. I could understand if it would have had daily usage, but no this simply isn't the quality I expect from a veiwing device. It hasn't even had to work hard in its 50 hours - the occasional movie or background music - hardly demanding. They just don't make them like they used to.

Question is do I have a leg to stand on (left leg still in tact)? I've heard 5 years is a reasonable lifespan for a television, and if so, how do I go about it? I'm willing to take a lie detector test on the viewing time - hopefully it has its own 'black box' that can prove my innocence.

Any thoughts on how to proceed?
