You should be able to turn this off by following the instructions below:

https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/174084?co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid&hl=en

This is possibly a Parental Control, that is a bit over zealous, but can be worked round in the settings of Youtube.

@HKellaway 

Many have been effected by thhis issue thhis week and we have @O2Lisa looking into it.

Try turnng off parental control / age restriction Guide: O2 Age restriction but if it's not that @O2Lisa will contact you to check your account in the morning.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

FWIW this doesn't seem to happen with unlocked devices so, O2 firmware related? My phone was bought unlocked and if I turn WiFi off, on 5G restricted mode for YouTube is still turned off.
