Ads? I thought the BBC had no ads.
I only had to click twice to get the video two play. One click ok the link and that one on the play button and it started playing immediately.
Users outside the UK will see ads on BBC News. If you ever go abroad and visit BBC News it's quite a different experience.
I am not from the UK.
I do have an adblocker though. I tried disabling it after the user said that there were ads but I didn't see any difference.
