I don't know. It could have been created from an old VHS tape source, where such problems are common. Frankly, I deal only in very clean sources (for shows, demos, etc.), so perhaps someone else knows more about the pedigrees of these pathologic sources.

While I have your attention, in a telecined source what is the third field in the third group of frames? I mean like this (for TFF): TFBF, TFBF,TFBFxx. I'm hoping it's a duplicate of the top field.
TFF 3:2 looks like this:

A A B C D # top fields
A B C C D # bottom fields

The two top A fields are duplicates and the two bottom C fields are duplicates.
