The escapist is playing the wrong video

So here's the deal, about a week ago, I tried to play Yatzee's latest video review. But the video wouldn't load when I hit play. . . nothing would happen. ( also I couldn't see the forum's latest posts on the right side of the screen)

The folowing day, I could see the forum posts, and I could hit play and a video would start playing. I would see the title screen for the correct video, ( Zero Punctuation Reviews: xxxx) and then an ad would start playing. When the ad was over, a video would start, it appears to be a video highlighting various older video series on the escapist ( such as Mayes Muses, and whatever that live action Mario-crime series was) And it's been doing it ever since.

Every time I try to play an escapist video, be it Yatzee or anything else, it always show the same stupid ancient promo video, and never the one I selected. Why is it doing this? Can I fix it, and if so, how?
