Are there any hard and fast rules in the building regs that state, for a
standard 2 storey domestic dwelling...

1) How big an external rear door (that you might need to get out of in the
event of a fire) needs to be, e.g. 78" x 30" min or whatever?

2) Whether a 2nd WC (1st WC being inside in a bathroom) can be a
downstairs
outside loo (ie no internal access).

Or would any issues along these lines be down to the opinion of a building
inspector?

I'm intrigued by your title and the use of the term 'Bog Standard' (as in
'Bog Standard Comprehensives', etc?)

BOG was originally derived from the expression British Or German, as these
were the only respectable standards in the world at one time, so it should
be a complimentary expression!
