Is this existing wiring or new wiring you are putting in. How is the line and neutral supply wired, looped at the switches or looped at the lights.

Unfortunately i disconnected the old light switch without taking a pic of how it was wired.

There must be other cables at the switches aside from the ones you have shown.

Cables on the lower rright are coming from the ceilling rose. And high the upper ones from the second switch for landing. So all in all two red two black two yellow and cpc x 2.

Blue of the LH cable used as permanent live is not too clever.

Worked up to a point bathroom light came on and off.One of the two Landing switches came on and off. By the way these two that worked ok were the two gang switch. The second switch for the two way switching for the landing turned on the bathroom light . So there must be some cross wiring. Any advice on how get it right.
