Put it back and play dumb. "Dunno what's up with the telly, Dad. I've changed the fuse and it still won't come on". *look a bit dilatory*

I'm waiting for the bit where his Dad was minding it for a gangster who was hoping to sell it at the weekend to get the money to pay for a trip to Holland to buy some E's, therefore making him lose thousands in potential profit and he'll be wanting the money back at £50 a week out of Simons Giro leaving him just enough to buy a packet of Chewits to live on per week.

How much water are we talking here Simon? Was it a mere splash, or was the TV completely immersed?

You are going to have to fix it yourself. I assume it is a Black & white CRT model.

 

Remove the back cover. Make sure that you discharge the CRT. Ok now, get your soldering iron out. we may remove a few components from the main circuit board.

 

Give me a shout when you have an array of electronic components scattered on the living room floor. The rest is easy.

Fake a burglary. That way, he'll get it all back on the insurance and you get to keep the rest of his gear.

 

Failing that, he'll be able to claim on the house insurance for accidental damage on the TV anyway, so don't panic.

 

You're making the (frankly mad) assumption that a relative of Simon's has insurance.
