I know it's not exactly a monitor I'm looking for but I guess it's the best place to ask (if not, please move it to the correct place). I'm looking for a new TV for my room. It will be used for gaming and watching films. I would like low input lag (doesn't have to be extremely low, just so it's not that noticable), full HD (1080p) and Freeview.

Budget is £600 and can be 37" to 42".

Any suggestions to which TV's I should look at would be much appreciated.

You can try panasonic in that price range - you may get a pretty good deal or LG or Samsung. Sony would be too expensive i reckon...

Shop around! That's my only advice.
Managed to get my 40" Sony Bravia (RRP approx £1100 at the time) for £630 online about 3 years ago :D

For that price you could easily get a 37" Samsung series 5 which is a quality bit of kit.

But as it's for a bedroom... unless you've got a massive room, then a 32" would be more than enough so go for something really nice in a 32", LED backlit, 100hz Freeview HD tuner.

Richer sounds is the place to go for customer service and good advice. They used to have a price match but I don't know if its still running.

im buying a 47" LG LCD from Richer Sounds on Friday - by far the cheapest place to go (minimum of £100 cheaper than currys/ comet)

Top retailer in my book... their customer service is top notch in my experience.

I would have to say dont forget to consider Toshiba - they make excellent TVs, my 37" is awesome and blows away my mums LG for picture and sound quality, plus they use eco-screens which run cooler and consume less electricity.
