video clips advancing to next one on BBC web site

Hello
I use both Edge & Chrome in Win10. The BBC website has recently begun advancing ala YouTube to the next video. You do get about 5 secs to stop it. But why should I have to? Can't find any help on the BBC site, Wondered if anyone here may have come up with a solution. Tried right clicking & get some Adobe Flash Player help but none of it works & when you select the manager on their website again there is no option covering this there.
TIA.

Awful, I hate that, if I wanted to see the next video I would click on it. This is also why I do not use you Tube as often as I used to. Not that I use the BBC web site that often either.

At least you can stop Youtube from doing that in your preferences, though it's not obvious how, but the BBC don't appear to have given that option so I go back to the home page (BBC News) or a different website, every time I've played a video.

And the BBC had the gall to publish a story last week implicitly criticising Youtube's auto play feature, as people on there were taken from a report on the two murdered journalists straight to the murderer's own video of the actual murders!

The irony obviously escaped them, idiots!
