Very interesting. My tv is a 100Hz Philips CRT widescreen set and might
need adjusting too I suppose. I also wonder if there is a setting in
XF86config to improve interlacing...? I have found that twinview makes
things worse so only have 'TV' and not 'TV, CRT' in 'option
connectedmonitor' and I also have SVIDEO enabled for extra quality.

You don't *always* need to deinterlace an interlaced signal when
watching on an interlaced device (i.e. a TV), but sometimes due to the
way the TV Out chip on the video card works it will give a better
picture with less motion artefacts. When watching on a progressive
display - a computer monitor for example, using a good quality
deinterlacer will improve the picture a lot.
