Still no idea as to the exact mechanism of failure though, so anyone out there, try to remember the "wiring through the adaptor" tip.

Yes, a bit of a fiddle but very doable.
I was hoping it wouldn't turn into two winters of discontent
which would have been enough to start to consider life beyond a Polo.

That is true. It's puzzling because the bulb holder is effectively a bayonet mount and holds quite firm.
If anyone experiences this problem it is probably more expedient to proceed with the fix rather than spend time on diagnostics.
