Broken waste pipe

Something like this?

So there's no access under the bath once is set down, so the waste has to be connected to the bath then it's set down onto the floor, hence wanting to use a flexi connection onto the bath waste ? Is there any room for a trap under the bath as that's usually an issue with these too.

How does the waste pipe run from the bath to the wall, is there a section that's been cut out of the skirt to allow the pipe run?
 
There is a u-bend from the plug hole, then a section has been cut out for the waste pipe, so yes once in place a flexi-pipe seems the way to go to connect back to the broken pipe.

Despite the (good) advice to avoid flexi pipes because of their tendency to accumulate muck and block, it does seem that in the case of a bath like this, which can only be stuck down, it's the way to go. Inevitably people will sit on the edge of the bath and it will move a bit, so any rigid waste pipe connection will always be subject to cracking.
