Another thing jas, bal rapidset has a recomended bed thickness of 6mm (max), from what I have seen, this will have been exceeded!

Tiler back butters the tiles and puts adhesive down adhesive too. On bal bag it says ccan be upto 12mm for localised areas. But agree would be difficult to fil voids now but will question tiler.
 
upto 12mm for areas with limited traffic. I don't think the area around and into the reveal of the french doors would fall in this catagory.

Well spotted charlie
 
If he serrated the floor I would expect to see the serration marks beyond the tiles, there is one or 2 where this is not pressent and that's what initially drew my attention. + the shadow under the tile + the rather poor screeding. Jas, don't think I'm being piccy, I would have concerns about that floor if I where you. Time will tell how good the installation is mate but if I where you, I'd be lifting one of those tiles for further inspection to see!
 
Correction- I don't see any evidence of serration (proper) method being used in any of the pics, the white marks on the floor is from backfilling.
