You'll need to give some more information. That picture doesn't show
the relevant bits of the consumer unit - I can see the main switch and
two 6A MCBs, which probably feed the lights. The sockets will be on a
32A MCB (or possibly 20A). There's also an RCD somewhere based on the
warning label at the top of the picture - has that tripped?

Assuming they worked ok before, almost anything in the chain may be faulty. MCB, RCD, wire fallen out in CU, wire come out of socket or junction box.

Plugging a socket tester into upstairs sockets may tell you/us something. If you're able to work on electrics some I'd apply a multimeter to see where you do & don't have power in the circuit.

Well in this case it appears to be an original post, and not something
dredged up fro 15 years ago, and the image link worked for me.

Try turning the MCB for the circuit off and then back on again...Its not
unknown for circuit breakers to look like they are "closed" when they
are actually still open.
