Boiler is making a gurgling sound and keeps short cycling. I believe there is air in the the system and I've already bled all the radiators. This is the pipe leading into the water cylinder, is it where I should be bleeding the air from?

I'm not sure, the boiler will fire up and stay on for a minute or 2 then stop with the burner light flashing. Then after a few minutes it will start again, this repeats indefinitely. Throughout all this there is a gurgling sound, the problem seems to be exactly as described in the video I posted.
