Default Back Boiler Problem

Please can somebody help me?
I have a back boiler / gas fire combination ( Thorn Housewarmer e ).
The problem that I have is that I cannot get the pilot light to stay
on.
The instructions state - make sure the central heating is switched on,
hold the pilot light switch and press the ignition. Then hold the
pilot light switch until for approx 20 secs and then gradualy release.
This should keep the pilot light on. However I have tried this
numerous times but it just go's out!
I have replaced the thermocouple, but again to no success.
This problem has only just started occuring. I had the system working
yesterday but the back boiler kept going out intermittently and now it
wont come on at all. Any idea's.
I have a danfoss CH terminal. When the on switch was depressed the
whole back boiler came to life, but now it clicks but seems it doesnt
do anything else.
HELP!!

Thanks,

Darcy
