the jets are not burning correctly. you really should switch it off until an expert can sort it out.

Hi,
In case you are in any doubt about the previous 2 posts, I agree, but would be more insistent that you TURN IT OFF AND THE PILOT LIGHT AS WELL.
From you post it is not safe to use.
Get someone Gas Safe Registered to look at it.
