Go to your local B&Q's hand tools section (near the spirit levels etc)
and get yourself a stud detector that looks like this (costs about
£16):

As a stud detector it's superb but unfortunately it doesn't have live
wire/copper detector but you could get a good one those separately and
they're not too expensive.
You can get the Zircon Triscanner Pro from RS for about £40. That has
all the facilities you require. The only thing it can't do is find studs
through metalised foils.

Thank you John, that looks like the one to go for.
The only thing is that I did, some time ago, tried one, and would give me erratic readings and had to return it. Perhaps there was something wrong with that unit.
