Can we not have autoplaying videos please?

There's a vid which keeps appearing at the top and side of screen, it autoplays which is a massive pain in the arse for my browser (causes it to crash). Plus it's extremely distracting. Is there any way it can be got rid of? Please?

Hi Gilbert,

This shouldn't be happening, we'll ask Tech to have a look.

Apologies.

Thanks Rebecca!
