Poping noise might be unburnt fuel getting through to exhaust (hence wet no.1 not firing) have you tried obvious plugs & leads?
Had the plug out to see if any spark?
Crankshaft sensor gap can royally fook things up as well!

Jas checked the gap last night (as I'd mentioned Sunday - it'd done a few miles so could've 'moved' - especially given who fitted it ) the gap was quite big and *fingers crossed* she was running well last night (I almost gained my first 3 points )
