There must be loads of independent reviews freely available on the net, such as Amazon.Comment

Whatever you do, look at the TV in question with both HD and normal broadcasts - some HD TVs looks utter tulipe with a freeview source.
I like the picture on my Sony, a shiny 32" D series bought last year (for features you'll probably not use).
My parents had a colossal Viera which was a bit funny looking, but maybe it was too big for the room.
I can recommend Amazon as a good vendor once you've done some research and decided."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."Comment

After some searching for the lad he went for a 32" (1080i) 100 hz lg scarlet. It very good, especially with sports and the XBOX.
It seems to compare better than the full hd 32" Toshiba. The full hd panasonic with 100hz is an impressive but expensive bit of kit.
I think everybody has different needs so you need to see them playing the sort of source you intend to use. Your local currys/comet etc will have a good selection but then they are usually set up crap so it can be less than helpful.
Here are a few sites that might help you get a good deal once you have decided what you want:-

If John Lewis flog what you want they will price match to bricks and mortar (it's a bit of an effort to get them to do it) and bung in a 5 year warranty.
You can get some comparisons here:-
