have you got a seperate yellow tap on the pipes from the lpg tanks?
or could just be an airlock - switch the gas hobs on for a few seconds. there should also be some isolator valves somewhere - normally under the sink area
is it new to you or have you had it a while Duncan

Regularos can be damaged quite easily over the winter by frost. Glad you got to the bottom of it.

£50, that must have been for one of the new high pressure regulators ? As DD said, about £5 for a normal low pressure one.

There was a lot of problems with the bulkhead mounted Truma regulators a while ago, I know a few people who were recommended to replace the Truma regulator with a Clesse regulator
Also check the pipework close to regulator for contamination as this can occur when the regulator fails and can cause premature failure of the replacement so I am told "Never keep up with the Joneses. Drag'em down to your level. It's cheaper".
