Looks like you dish is out of alignment and is easily moved beyond limits by the gusts of wind!

If you have any trees or bushes in front of or anywhere near your sky dish, that may be your problem.

if it's a recent development it could be the satellite and weather interference. we've been suffering on and off the last couple of days.
unplug/change the scarts and reboot the sky +.

Try switching off at the socket, and reseting the box. It worked for me!

Is you new LCD TV bigger than 28''? Sky only looks good if it's on a screen smaller than 28'' (looks best on 14'' portable) On a big screen the picture goes blocky and fuzzy around the edges esp. on football matches.

Mus tbe your TV, ours is a 32" and sky's fine, a m8 has a 46" and sky, and its fine for them too...
you usually get the blockyness when the signal is below 60/65%

1>. Turn off or unplug all other devices inputting to the TV (dvd, video etc)
2>. Check the picture settings in sky menu - make sure they are the same as the TV (aspect ratio etc)
My Xbox interferes with Sky, had to buy a manually switchable scart thingy from maplins.
