doesnt sound right... exactly what cables do you have coming in? T&E and a 1C&E?

if yes, red might be switched live, and the blacks neutrals (1 neutral off to outside light?)

use a multimeter and find out what does what and did you make note of how it was wired before you removed old fittin?
 
hi m8

sounds to me like its wired in singles and the feed is at the switch.
connect the red to live and the blacks to neutral, the green and yellow is earth.
