All of the everyday English hops go well with malty flavours, Fuggles, Goldings, Challenger. Take your pick. Fuggles especially seems to meld well with malty beers.

About 30 - 40 IBU depending on how bitter you like it.

About half a gram to a gram of late hops with 15 minutes left in the boil and again to steep, again, depending on how hoppy you like it.

Yeah sorry. I meant half a gram to a gram per L. Hopefully Nobby isn't sitting by his brew kettle measuring out a single hop to throw in.
