I have heard of a spark (no names no pack drill) who, when surprised by a belt, said "that can't be £&@ing right!" and touched it again :)
 
Obviously to narrow the problem down I bought new 45a 2 gang cooker socket
That's probably the least obvious thing to try (other than touching it a second time)
Any suggestions would be very much appreciated
I suggest your installation has at least two dangerous faults and needs fully testing by a competent person

John has hit the nail on the head with his comments.

You've most likely got more than one fault plus what you're doing is downright dangerous which is the reason I'm closing this thread.

You need to get a competent electrician with the appropriate test equipment to help you find the problems. Please don't continue, either you or another user of the electrical installation is likely to get injured.
