If you fire one of those peizo gas igniters in the vicinity of an analogue
set, you get loads of interference across the screen.  I suppose the
electrical interference has the same effect on the digital signal since
this
is just an RF signal.  Error correction will do its best to a point, but if
the bitstream is too corrupted then you're going to get break up.  Same
goes
for motorbikes and cars without supressors, light switches, in fact
anything
that generates a spark and causes an electromagnetic disturbance....
