-The issue with the radiator was that the TRV had seized up, and it wouldn't be possible to just replace it like for like. The old radiator had imperial tails, and the TRV was horizontal rather than vertical. A modern replacement TRV would be too far away from the existing pipes. We took the opportunity to get a nice new radiator with a standard radiator tail and standard TRVs.

 There's a nice-looking radiator shop just down the road from us, so we decided to go with them. Support local and all that. But when they quoted us £600 to plumb the new radiator in (radiator not included) we thought they were having a laugh and what's the worst that could happen if we just did it ourselves.

 We also needed to bend the pipe to accommodate the slightly wider combined width of the radiator and new TRVs. We practised this too. The trick for a dogleg is to draw a line on the pipe bender so your second bend is the same angle as the first. It's also important to be sure you're bending in the same z axis.
