the bacl of your cooker will be a 3/4" BSP thread that you screw a cooker hose into
on the wall you should have a bayonet fitting that that the other end of the cooker hose pushes on to and locks on when turned

Ive not seen a cooker hose with a female 1/2 thread though? feel free to correct me
Think its a 1/2 bsp iron coupler he wants anyway and/or a gas safe plumber.
