An ad for the energy drink V featuring a man on fire is to be pulled off our screens.

The Advertising Standards Authority has ruled the advertisement be removed after someone, who'd lost a relative in a fire, made a complaint.

The complainant found the ad offensive and believed it made a mockery of the Fire Service's campaign to prevent fires and deaths.
