Hope someone can please help with strange (to me) issue

I turned lights in last night in my home & they came on & then went off. But all apart from 1 light downstairs in my house doesn't work. At first I thought fuse, but it's ok. The 1 light that stays on is on same fuse as the ones that won't. None are linked with same switch so none of the lounge, kitchen, dining room, hall or lower toilet are working. Any ideas on where to start to remedy ?

Thanks
 
Could the issue come from a wall switch ? On the wall connecting my hall to my kitchen, I have wired switches both sides, so you can turn lights in kitchen on or off from either side of the wall. It was this switch I pressed when all apart from the 1 light went ou
 
the furthest light (physically) from the fuse board may well be the first one on the circuit. also,are you sure that the light that works is not on the upstairs circuit? it has been know, especially with lights that have 2 way switching, might even have L from circuit#1 and N from circuit#2.
 
Up & down light definitely not linked, definitely separate fuses & only linked by the switch having two separate switches, u can't turn downstairs light on/off from upstairs, only upstairs light from down lol. Just pulled the switch off from kitchen, wires were solidly fixed, yet with it totally removed, still no other lights, so guessing its not the switch here.
