Character faces different direction after moving

When I move my character, he immediately almost snaps to look in a different direction to where I’ve moved him to. While this doesnt necessarily affect the game this far, I want to address this problem. It doesn’t seem to happen in the videos, and maybe the problem was fixed and I missed it?

Here’s my player movement script, if that helps:
{
using System;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityStandardAssets.Characters.ThirdPerson;

[RequireComponent(typeof(ThirdPersonCharacter))]
public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour
{

[SerializeField] float walkMoveStopRadius = .2f;

ThirdPersonCharacter m_Character;   // A reference to the ThirdPersonCharacter on the object
CameraRaycaster cameraRaycaster;
Vector3 currentClickTarget;

bool isInDirectMode = false; // TODO consider making static later

private void Start()
{
    cameraRaycaster = Camera.main.GetComponent<CameraRaycaster>();
    m_Character = GetComponent<ThirdPersonCharacter>();
    currentClickTarget = transform.position;
}

// Fixed update is called in sync with physics
private void FixedUpdate()
{
    if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.G)) // G for gamepad TODO allow player to map later
    {
        isInDirectMode = !isInDirectMode;
        currentClickTarget = transform.position;
    }
    if (isInDirectMode)
    {
        ProcessDirectMovement();
    }
    else
    {
        ProcessMouseMovement();
    }
}

private void ProcessDirectMovement()
{
    float h = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
    float v = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");

    // calculate camera relative direction to move:
    Vector3 m_CamForward = Vector3.Scale(Camera.main.transform.forward, new Vector3(1, 0, 1)).normalized;
    Vector3 m_Move = v * m_CamForward + h * Camera.main.transform.right;
    m_Character.Move(m_Move, false, false);
}

private void ProcessMouseMovement()
{
    if (Input.GetMouseButton(0))
    {
        switch (cameraRaycaster.layerHit)
        {
            case Layer.Walkable:
                currentClickTarget = cameraRaycaster.hit.point;  // So not set in default case

                break;
            case Layer.Enemy:
                print("Not going towards enemy");
                break;
            default:
                print("shouldn't be here!");
                return;
        }

    }
    var playerToClickPoint = currentClickTarget - transform.position;
    if (playerToClickPoint.magnitude >= walkMoveStopRadius)
    {
        m_Character.Move(playerToClickPoint, false, false);
    }
    else
    {
        m_Character.Move(Vector3.zero, false, false);
    }
}

}
