Pilot light won't stay lit... Glo-Worm HW Express 80

Hi all,
I'm having trouble with my old combi boiler. The pilot light has gone out a couple of times over the last month or so.
I switch the boiler off and back on after a few minutes, press in one knob thing as I click the igniting button and gradually release the pressed in button but then just as the button is nearly fully released the light goes out.
Please can someone advise what the problem might be?
Many thanks

Thanks mealticket, how would you tell if it was healthy as such. I can see a blue glow in the little spyhole thing and it seems to be staying lit at the moment.0
