I can't tell you if it is a "bad solder joint" because I don't have your
television in front of me ...... have you inspected the area solder
joints??? or just guessing out loud??? Maybe a bad cap? Maybe a carbon
bridge on the board?

OK, have tried it in the dark - There seems so be arcing between a
couple of components near the big C682 capacitor which is causing the
noise. Has anyone had any similar experience? I'm wondering if there's
a poor solder joint, so its arcing instead of taking the normal route
through the board.
