TV's under 250?

Hi guys

My friend has just moved into a little flat of his own and is after a new tv. Will mostly be used for x360/freeview/dvd.

He only has a budget of £250 and is looking for something between 22 and 32" but the closer to 32" the better i guess.

As good a quality picture and sound as possible given the slim budget too.

Any suggestions?

Samsung T240HD | 24 inch LCD TV 1080p HD Ready Freeview | Richer Sounds ...going to struggle to find anything bigger, well at least a 'proper' brand. Cheapest branded 32" is probably the Samsung 32b350 or 32lh2000, if he can wait for some Christmas contribution (~£300)

Yeah well worth stretching the budget to £280 for either that Samsung or the Toshiba 32AV615.

I'd go for the 32 inch Samsung but if he can't strech that far there's a 26inch here
