Could it be achieved by using a terminal block instead? If it's a case of there not being enough terminals in the existing rose?

Hi sorry I meant that there wasn't a light fitting attached to the ceiling rose. The photo I sent first was how it was when I moved in. I have now moved the wires in accordance to the image above. But one light stays on all the time. The ryb cable is for a burglar alarm is believe after...

So I need to move one of the red lives to the switch live? I'm getting a multimeter on the way back from work so I can take a look then. From what I can see the wires are all too short and there is no give in the ceiling so I'm tempted to attach them all to a terminal block and push it behind...

Hi guys, I tried replacing a ceiling rose in my new house. I have 2 in the living room that are either both on or off. And I have 2 switches at either end of the room. After changing the fitting, one light always stays on and if I flick a switch, both lights come on but are dimmer. I have 4...
