The 'normal' TV plug is known as a Coax plug/socket, the screw type (satellite) plug is an 'F type' plug/socket.

There are adaptors, what you need is a FEMALE COAX SOCKET to F TYPE MALE PLUG.
https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1313&_nkw=FEMAL........

But for best quality signal it's generally best to minimise the number of connections/joints, so really best option is to swap the Coax plug on cable to a F type on the caravan end. Easy to do, just need to trim cable end correctly before fitting plug (info on WWW in you need it).
