the radiation from your TV cannot be effectively screened. It travels through any material, including your body, with ease.
But fortunately it diminishes rapidly, which is why it has practically become unmeasurable (sic) at a distance of two feet.

The "radiation" they used to detect came from the aerial, they detected an active local oscillator. These do not exist in digital TV's. Picking up screen signals is easier than you think, hence so much security shielding around military commcens, including isolated mains lines and earth points.
I think we'll end up paying a "BBC Tax", then after a few years the government, still strapped for cash, will introduce a tax covering all forms of signal reception. With a name such as Digital Access Tax.
