strung together this:

The wire from the silver box at the bottom of the pic marked "Downstairs
heating" is the first black wire in
http://www.ukosborne.co.uk/images/wiring.jpg
and has five colours coming out of it. If I'm going in the right direction,
let me know and I'll see exactly where the wires go.

Let me guess, Brown to blue(switchwire) of room stat. Blue to neutral.
Grey to live. Orange to boiler live and g\y to earth.
The boiler wire is 3rd from the left.
It doesn't matter what you do with it, it's still wrong.
You've now got two options as to how to correct it, sort of, without
rewiring.
