I would have done as follows:
Add new flights to booking 2, but leave original flights in booking and commit. This means Im holding both sets of flights. Check required Avios and difference in tax, advise this to customer along with amend fee and check they are happy to proceed.
Cancel bookings 1 and 3.
Go back to booking 2 remove original flights, commit and complete change ie reissue front office if possible or queue to back office.
Understood! At least I know how to feed the advisor how to do it (if I'm ever in this situation again). Still waiting for the call back - fingers crossed it happens today. If not, I need to be onto plan B / C / D at this point
Thanks for sharing the knowledge
