My guess is that the 22mm into bathroom is the bath tap cold supply with the valve stuck and that the other valve in the loft that you mention controls a cold supply to the taps and WC cisterns or possibly is a central heating circuit supply. What becomes shut off when they are turned off? The...

The connector has an external rubber seal to go into the soil pipe and an internal seal to receive the pan outlet or ( extension). There is also a space saver connector that may be even more help than a swan neck.

Why can the fire brigade unlock a thumbturn easier?

Weld and re-drill?

Google eBay extra long heavy duty narrow hall runner rubber barrier. Don't know if it would suit.

You can get a manual from the internet for this panel. It may be worth researching the topic, given you really do seem to be a novice with electrics. Essentially you need to open the panel, but unless you have managed to isolate it from the mains, then there is a risk of mains powered parts...
