The aerial won't be useless, just not as good, as it wasn't designed for the particular channels digital uses.
If you live close to the transmitter and have a stonking signal, you may well get away with it.
If you don't, you'll have to upgrade your aerial.

You'll need a digital box first. I didn't have to change my areal which I've had on the roof for years. I think it depends on where you live!

No. You will need a digital ariel or cable TV.

basically, no. Your old arial will be useless and will not receive anything ... unless, maybe, your tv is already prepared for digital and has a built-in receiver, in this case i am not sure but i think the whole idea is to do away with external antennas and arials

No, in 2015 our good old analogue tellies will be useless.
PS : No offence intended, may I respectfully point out it's "aerial" - sorry, I'm a spelling nazi.
