Question Magenta Picture

I have a Philips 28PW5324. The picture keeps going magenta & out of focus. Switching off & back on cures it for a short time, however it soon comes back. Is this fixable or land fill?

Sorry to say I have this exact problem too:
Phillips 32PW6515 (A10E) flickering purple and slow to turn on

It's the tube going faulty, costas around £300 to replace, i.e. landfill sorry
