The old series actually runs at 50FPS (aside from Spearhead from Space of course) so that would be a complete disaster.
It's 50 interlaced fields (every other line) alternating each second, which translates to 25 frames per second -- it's the same thing being described in different terms. NTSC expressed this way is 59.94.
Plenty of SD/PAL 576i/50 material or even HD 25fps looks perfectly fine being transferred to US standards IF it's done correctly -- not perfect, but it can be quite good. It all depends on the conversion competance
Agreed.
