Right, if you are not familiar and comfortable with electrical work at mains voltage then I would recommend the services of an electrician, it is difficult to describe electrical fault finding by text but basically get a multimeter and see where you cease to have a voltage - It may be that the wall switch has failed.
What I have seen happen is that the spring clips on the light fittings that connect to the two pins on the lamps fail after time and the fittings need replacement. Similarly check where the tails from the fittings connect to the wiring from the transformer.
In the long run it will probably be cheaper to employ an electrician than attempt repair by substitution which is the other option.
Finally I must remind you that since the adoption of part P of the building regulations amature electrical work (particularly in bathrooms etc) is prohibited - personally I dont see why a failed ships steward that made deputy Prime Minister should be able to tell me what I can and can't do myself but there we are.
