If you have tried everything to fix it, and not too bothered, you could try putting a large magnet by the screen and move it around. The magnet will bend the electron beams and may or may not fix it.
Or take it to a tv repair place.

by the sounds of it, its the tube on its way out as thats what ours does atm, will have a red tinge then goes off for a bit then the whole screen goes red then it turns off. then after a bit turn it back on and its fine.
if it is the tube then it aint worth fixing as its the most expensive part of it (so im told)
