Hi There

I am a diy type of guy and I am changing a ceiling rose at the top of my stairs

All others in house I have been fine with but this 1 is making me think twice and ask first,

It currently has 2 brown and 2 blue wires plus and earth photo attached,

And the light fitting has only 3 spaces with 1 blue and 1 brown plus metal earth

What is the best way to join these up?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Are there two lights that come on together?
 
OK, so the two cores from the ceiling itself can just be doubled into the screw terminal. All brown, all blue, all green.
