    Just one thought, not sure if it is the same today, but a few years ago one of the kids knocked a drink over on the tv and the video. We did not have accidental damage but the contents insurance covered them for accidental damage anyway, so it might be included - have another look.

    BUT - is it worth making a claim and losing any no claims for the sake of a 22 inch TV?

    We were weighing this up, probably not no.

    I think what you have here is a dead TV.
    It has ceased to be, it rests in peace, its kicked the bucket, shuffled off its mortal coil and joined the choir eternal. Its an Ex TV.

    ah, bless him, don't you think he feels badly enough without you being furious at him. Accidents happen, I fell out of bed and hit my back on the bedside table, broke ribs, I wish the telly had gone on the floor instead. x
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.
