Freelander 2 Starting problems

Uploading this video as an avid fan of the Freelander 2 vehicle. It has its flaws but I get home everytime. This video is because of the most recent issues which has me stumped. The vehicle has starting issues as of recently and I am trying to solve it so others out there can learn. Alternatively if you already know what the problem is let me know.

The battery is new and the vehicle gets serviced on time and in full. Because of the harsh conditions we tend to change oil every 10000km with fully synthetic.

So far I have checked the alternator voltage and found it to put out 13.4v. So I suspected the alternator first. However there was a drain on the battery so I charged the battery and refitted it an now I have a healthy 14.8v & the starting issue has gone away. I will run it now for a couple of weeks and check everything again.
