I have indeed fucked the threads. Will take it to the shop and ask what they reckon. Presumably this is not something I should attempt myself, given my impatience and cack-handedness with the bottom bracket.

I doubt you'd be keen to buy the BB tap set as they are ££££. If ever there was a LBS job, this is it.

Will an external BB not be the ideal solution? See https://www.bikemonger.co.uk/yst-threadless-bottom-bracket-58-p.asp?_=&variantid=60
I have one of these on my old Carlton steel frame, works fine. Mavic used to do something similar, I had one on my Vitus 992 many years ago.

You've fucked the threads, which will need chasing/recutting if there's enough material left. A shop shouldn't charge a lot for that, definitely less than the cost of the frame, but they could tell you quite quickly if it's possible
If not, you'll need to look at another BB solution, press fit maybe
