words appear at random on my tv screen??

not sure if this is the right section but here goes..

ages ago i noticed some words appearing on my tv screen, like on the old tvs when you tuned into a channel to close to another and you got a king of dual layer

would understand and right it off if i still had that system but this on sky digital, on more then one channel.. im not talking about messages just single words.. the most recent one i noticed was ' OK ' in block capitals, letters about 2inches tall with a thick circle around it.. seems to move slowly from left to right for a few seconds then disappear. i rewound the channel to see if it happened again but it didnt

dosent happen regularly prob bout 5 times this year, it blends into the program just slightly out of tune (hard to discribe) guess i notice it when im busy or not really focussing on the screen - thought it was just me but even my mum noticed it once

will keep a look out for more, prob wont happen now but i just dont know what it could be

any ideas?

probably two channel interfering with each other and creating ghost images like when you see doubles on your tv, did you flip through the channels afterward to see if there was an infomercial or something with the same images that you've seen?
