This a difficult one, your main picture is showing the correct wiring, however most modern versions now have the single sheath two core wire, and therefore not screen accurate. A competent electrician could rewire and test (PAT) of course, there is a modern version of the old single core twin wire available. However I believe this also an original 1227 showing in the picture in very good condition with silver hardware, not brass as in the more recent version. It is very difficult to tell of course, the lighting being the way it is set. Looking at alternative pictures, under a search ( James Bond Apartment Spectre ), there are two pictures from the Telegraph I think it was, showing more clearly the chair and lamp and the hardware looks silver on the Anglepoise. You can if you are lucky find an original one on place like eBay of course, though a good one will cost almost as much as the new one. You can still get the brass version with the twisted wire, but again these are mostly on eBay, etc. If you see a supplier showing a picture of a 1227 with twisted wires, ensure it is as pictured before you purchase.
