I wouldn't buy Samsung the sound is usually awful . vibrations when turned up loud etc
Personally I'd go Samsung over LG. But I'm no expert. If you go for the Samsung it's cheaper here:

If you're buying a plasma why isn't one of those choices a Panasonic?
Edit:
Think I know why after looking at the prices
I'd buy the Samsung out of the two. I've not had any problems with my Samsung TV in the 3 years that i've had it. Ant says the sound is crap but if you are getting a 50" TV i'd assume you've got some kind of 5.1 system so it wouldn't be an issue.
This might sound stupid but you could get a smaller 1080p TV for that kind of money, wouldn't that be better?
I like the samsungs myself
got 2 on my pcs and both work fantastically and the picture quality is top notch

Bugger I had a sweat on then incase I was talking bollox but what about this one? 1080p and its cheaper but 40" rather than 50" which is way too big unless you have a big house. If I was offered any of these TV's or the two you picked for free i'd go for the one of these. You'll be gutted you didn't get a 1080p TV if you atart watching Blurays etc.

No they don't do it for me I'm afraid.
My own personal view is Plasma looks better or rather the Samsungs do .
I've been using a 40" LCD from Aldi for a couple of years and to be honest to my eye the plasma pictures look better.

Really chuffed with this 50" plasma had it for about 9 months now stunning images with the wd hd media box aswell running through it.
Also note this 50" plasma is fooking heavy took 3 of us to lift the thing into position lol...
Will up some photo of mine if you want a closer look
i have an lcd and plasmas and tbh i prefer the plasma . seem to be a bit of a lag on the lcd out of the two i would go for the samsung. but pannys all the way 4me2
spend a bit more on a panasonic i think, im sure ive seen a 1080p 42" one for 700-800 in the high street, wasnt really looking but i was pissed it was better than mine, for less cash.
I wouldnt worry about the sound being bad from a screen like this, if you have any sense you'll be using a proper set of speakers and an amp.
If i knew the sound was poo and has speakers say a 5.1 , i would get annoyed i know the sound is crap on the TV. Its just from my own experiences of samsung tvs. I have seen 5 which my friends/dad have bought all last generation ones though with shit sound on the speakers. Im sure there is loads of reviews on sites stating this also
infact the tv is on here 4me2 for the samsung one. even says poor sound
http://www.reevoo.com/reviews/mpn/samsung/ps42a457
it is the 42" model. but i presume its the same spec. Dont want you to buy a shit tv mate
Well you know my vein m8 seeing as u know i have the 50in Samsung the last 5 months and i fuckin LOVE IT
best thing i ever bought, and the difference between 1080i and 1080p i doubt id personally bother with the difference or even notice
for£800 i got a fucking humongous tele which i love and looks mind blowing with ps3 and 360 so im happy

Brother in law has a 1080p 50in Plasma. A samsung. And I am so green eyed you wouldn't believe. He has the surround sound, also Samsung and a matching stand.
It's so shite...lol... not....
Go for it. I don't know anyone with anything better!

I hope you didn't buy either. Panasonic is the only way to go unless you have £3k to play with for a Kuro 9G
