Good photos.

How to wire them now depends on how the lights are switched,

you have 2 lights in the room, do they come on together or are they switched seperately?

If they are switched seperately then all three reds together in a block, blacks and blue together (neutral) and then yellow is your switched live

 
The green and yellow sheath is the earth they go in the earth terminal the blue and black are both neutrals they go with the the neutral the red from the 4 core cable put in live and the last 2 cores a yellow from the 4 core and the red from the 3 core cable go in a seperate connector if this doesn't switch right then swap the red and the yellow in the 4 core cable around

By 3 core I mean the twin and earth has it has 3 cores by 4 core I mean the 3 core and earth sorry if I'm complicating things I know what I mean

 
Yellow would indeed appear to be the switched live as the first light switch picture shows a red strapping across the two switches, this red is most probably the permanent live coming into the 2-way switch.

Only just realised there were 3 pics of switches only seen the 2 yellow is switched

 
Thanks guys, so...let me see if I get this.

The two reds go together? (in a seperate connector?) I take it they have no further use in the light fitting?

The Black and Blue go together to Neutral?

Yellow goes to Live?

and the yellow and green goes to Earth??

Is that right?
