Obviously the pilot has extiguished and passing gas due to faulty FFD, Pieso igniter not working or spark eletrode broken.
All in all you need an RGI to find reason for smell of gas and make repairs on findings. DO NOT attempt to lite with a naked flame.

Flame failure device, Basically its a valve that the Thermocouple keeps open to allow main burner, if pilot fails this valve should close.
Thanks everyone for your help finally got it fixed this morning Pilot assembly was totally knackered and fell to bits and thermocouple was replaced by CORGI man, nice and warm now and can think about buying a new Combi boiler, any suggestions out there.
