Headphone - Sky+ Sound Quality

I've had a set of Sennheiser HD555 for about 4 months now, which I haven't been able to fault - until now. I use them for listening to the TV / Sky+, and DVD home cinema mainly. In the last week, whenever I listen to anything recorded on Sky+, I get a slight clicking sound about every minute. I don't get this when I listen to any other source, or when I watch recorded programs without the 'phones.

Are the 'phones faulty, or are they just picking up slight noises that I cannot hear from my TVs speakers? Its getting very annoying watching things now, but do I buy new 'phones or have an engineer to look at my Sky+?

It's not your phones.

I seem to get clicking through my speakers on some channels.
