Both T+E are your loop in and loop out, and your 3 core is your switch you have picture of inside light switch?
If you can psychicly diagnose that at a distance without testing I may have some subby work for you to do with my callouts.
 
I'm not being nasty here, but I find it funny when people take down a light and expect to see just 3 wires L N E, and then wonder why there's more (even more funny when they connect all the Reds (Browns) together and all the blacks (blues) together and then wonder why the mcb keeps blowing!

do not complain. it's things like this that pay the bar bill.
 
Not as funny as assuming blue / black has to be a neutral in a switch and then wonder why their funky dimmer / WiFi “smartswitch” doesn’t work.

I think at this point of frivolity,it may be polite to explain to the OP,that his ask and pics,are akin,to someone requesting help with a computer software issue...and posting a photo of the keyboard. :)
