Clicking boiler

I have an Ideal Elan 2 Gas Boiler and when the water or heating are due to come on the pilot (assuming that's what it is) lights the first time and works for bit then it keeps coming on then going off. I have made video of the noise/action and put it on youtube HERE. Picture says a thousand words etc.
There has been no changes to the system. It's all been a ok since we moved in 12 months ago.
The problem started last night when the water was timed to come on.
It was serviced just under 12 months ago (British Gas) and new timer/control panel in the airing cupboard was fitted.
Any ideas what the problem might be before I call a plumber?
Thanks

Needs expert diagnosis. Could be one of many things i;m afraid. If its fanned flued can you feel the fan running constantly at the flue outlet?0
