If you assume 2500BTU/ft^3, then it is about £0.048/kWh.

((UK£ 1.25) / (meter^3)) * ((1 / 2 500) * ((ft^3) / btu)) = 0.0483105456 UK£ / ((10^3) Wh)

It depends on the calorific value of the gas. If you've got a British Gas bill lying around it tells you how to work it out on the back - but you need the colorific value first...

It all depends on how efficiently you extract energy from it.
