Just in case it makes any difference to what you know already, the backups for tapesrv are working just fine.
I've checked inetd.conf, services, .amandahosts etc and their permissions and ownerships against a completey separate configuration that works. All seems to be fine:
--- On tapesrv ---
/etc/services:
amanda 10080/udp # Amanda backup
amandaidx 10082/tcp # Amanda backup index
/etc/inetd.conf:
amandaidx stream tcp nowait amanda /usr/local/amanda/libexec/amindexd \amindexd
amidxtape stream tcp nowait amanda /usr/local/amanda/libexec/amidxtaped \amidxtaped
amanda dgram udp wait amanda /usr/local/amanda/libexec/amandad \amandad
Does the interface column in disklist make any difference?
Have I missed anything out?
Appreciate you help so far.

Actually, it is tapesrv.bc.uk that's timing out and not bkpclient.
Forget about bkpclient, it seems to work just fine; look into
/tmp/amanda/ on tapesrv, that's where your problem is. And yes, even
local backup (from a disk on tapesrv to a tape on tapesrv) go over a net
connection, so check inetd, xinetd, services etc. *on
tapesrv*.
