your tele may have accumilated a little dampness it is advisable not to use the tv. (damp is water)! it can be fixed but it is probably cheaper to buy a new one

You could have what is called a "dry joint" this is where the solder cracks around a joint. It can also lead to sparking or burning around the joint. It can be set off by moving the TV which you say you have just moved. If the TV is still working any competent engineer should be able to sort it
