Campaigners say children are encouraged to eat unhealthily by advertising

The charity Cancer Research UK is launching a campaign against junk food TV ads.

It says the rise in childhood obesity is a huge concern and a growing epidemic, and it's "clear the restrictions already in place during children's TV shows aren't enough".

Children in Oxfordshire were asked how they reacted to the ads. One said he wanted to "lick the screen".
