Did you step through the video field by field using SeparateFields()? Otherwise you can't be sure if there's blending or not.

Unfortunately, when it comes to broadcasts there is another possibility, a very atrocious one: The film could have been speed up or slowed down by the broadcaster (on top of the PAL speed up/telecine) to better fit their schedules and commercial breaks. Yes, that sounds awful, doesn't it.
The result is usually a mess if you want to do anything with it.

I've seen it done many times and unless the recording is somehow very important I always discard it.
