Done Up Like a Kipper
Done up/stiched up like a kipper, surely takes it's meaning from the term red herring, which means to mislead or distract from an important issue, in a trickster style.
A Red Herring, in the literal sense, is a particularly strong smelling fish called a Kipper that has turned a red colour following the smoking process traditionally used to preserve it.
Therefore, to be done or stiched up like a kipper, clearly means to be duped or tricked by false information that was there for all to see, (in hindsight).

Boffin
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
