Hey guys
I can only assume it was due to monumental rainfall during the night. The cable comes direct from the roof (Freeview). What is bothering me a little is that there was a spot of water at the opposite side of the TV from where the cable goes in! (a single drop) - but after I'd cleaned it up this morning, there had been only about two or three drips, with a bubble of water right at the end of the cable (not reaching into the coax plug) and this was where the drip began: here's a photo:

Re: Totally WEIRD - help?
Ah.. as has been suggested One thing you can guarantee about water.. if it can get somewhere, it will! My Dad bought a new TV not too many years ago.. a large screen jobbie (not flat/FST) and he complained the picture wasn't particularly good. I took the plug off the coax and the centre core was pretty much green liquid None of us could remember how long the cable had been there so it was decided to have a new run of coax made and update the AE at the same time. Bob's your uncle.. he was rewarded with one fine picture

Interestingly enough (not that I watch telly much at all) the pic is fine (althought I have had to retune the freeview a couple of times) but the whole lot needs renewed I think - just lucky that it stopped before it got into the telly
Anyway, SWMBO is pleased as it clears her of my accusation that last time it happened she had sat the iron there or something....
