Glow Workm Fuelsaver MKII switching off?

My boilers pilot light will light OK but as soon as water or heating is switched on the light slowly dies and then goes out completely and I can hear a ckicking sound as it goes outaltogether. Any ideas what the problem is.

just had a second thoought.is the flame yellow?
if it is then the boiler is sooted up and very dangerous.
turn it off anyway

lots of reasons.have you had it serviced?the way you explain it it sounds if you have a lack of air check your terminal is not obscured or covered in any way.
check thermocouple time to drop out.
or could be an overheat stat.
