Not a light fitting, though I don't think bayonet light bulbs have changed with metrification either.

hmmm, something round (and small) - it wouldn't be a peep hole for the door, would it

Small and round - yes
Peep-hole - no.
Move away from the door -the only thing in common is needing to fit into something.

light switch?

No. Can't imagine a round light switch the diameter of a spice / pepper tub

Cooker knob, and I have read your mails, Mo!

No not cooker knob.

The old one kept getting stuck in the hole it fitted into, and the nth time I struggled to get it out the middle came out.
Although it still fitted it was useless with a hole in the middle.
Didn't do its job at all.

No idea then!

Glug, glug, glug

aha, some kind of tap?

smaller. tap washer?

or a drain plug!

Yes. The sink plug kept getting stuck. Pulling it out pulled the chain off. So lever it out with a screwdriver in the metal triangle that the chain had been fixed too. Then that came off. Pull it out with pliers. OK till the middle of the plug pulled off. A sink plug with a hole in the middle is fairly useless.

got there in the end
