The ring circuit is not a ring! If it were a ring then there would be two conductors at the mcb, neutral and earthg bars.
Maybe its the way you have drawn it, but the ring starts and ends in the CU, not outside.
Think about it, and try again
PS What is the double pole device at the top of the two diagrams?

I was thinking that but the top sketch is like that aswell? Is the top sketch part of the question? Or did you do that?

Make it look like a ring final 
I put in 6 sockets so you can't cut and paste. Get the words correct, get use to calling it a ring final, not just a ring, they are not the same.
It does not ask for a fused connection unit, so don't add one.

The top should be a radial socket

It says ring, so wire as a ring, not spurs off a ring.
Maybe a stupid question, but in this diagram, wouldn't the sockets be always live?
The fcu would not stop electricity from going to the sockets.
Or am I seeing it wrong?
