I wasn't going to pipe in on this one as I know little about TV's, however I've seen this happen on the older tube type TV's.
It was a dry / bad solder in the little power box in the back of the TV. When the TV heated up enough the power used to get cut. It would do this every 30 seconds or so - on an LCD TV the power draw is less so it may take a bit longer.
Obviously this is only a 'it may be this as I've seen it before' rather than a definitive diagnosis but I hope it helps a little.
Kind regards,
