Wiring new light pendant has me stumped

[basketcase]

I’ve checked wiring diagrams and other forum posts and I’m still stumped. I’m likely being an absolute fool here. I’ve wired plenty of lights before, this room has two lights off a single switch.
Essentially there’s three lives that I can’t quite figure out where they’re supposed to go

Pic below is the old fixture. I understand there’s live/line, neutral and then loop in the middle.

And the one of the new pendants below:

Do I simply use a terminator for the three reds and leave them connected to nothing? Can I simply use electrical tape?

I wouldn’t just use insulation tape, a connector block with them all in would be better, but I’m confused, if they’re connected at 1 end, why would you not connect them the other?

They are (or were) connected to each other.

Understood thanks. Are they the permanent live going to the switch? I’ll try to source a connector.

Yes, one from supply (from previous light or CU) , one to switch and one to next light.
