TV aerial wall socket

Hi - silly question.
I've moved place to an apartment and tried plugging my TV aerial able from TV into the allocated wall socket. But it won't fit as the wall socket has a pin (not a hole) so both ends of cable won't attach since they're both pins too. The adjacent socket on the same panel is allocated for a radio and has a hole, tried on the off chance but that didn't work. I'm sure the last socket on previous place had a hole for the TV socket.
Do I need a new cable or some sort of adaptor please 🥺
.
Many thanks

You can get an adapter, try amazon online or Wilco in the shopping centre2

Is there an aerial in the loft or on the roof that leads to this socket, or could it be Sky or cable?0

A picture of the socket would help.0
