Did you end up requeening then?

Mark posted a comment asking if I had re-queened the colony.

No. After the second swarm (the cast), we left a single queen cell only. This queen must have emerged and mated successfully, as the hive is now thriving again. There is new brood in a good regular pattern, and the number of bees is increasing.

Phew!
