How would I wire the above?

I already have the live wire and fused spur switch. I'm not too sure with the connection side.

Go from the fuse spur to the photocell with you 3 core cable, then from the photocell to your 1st light, then a cable from the 1st to the second light. The connections in the photocell will proberbly be L OR L in, N for your neutral, L1 or L out. The red from your spur will go in L, The red to your light will go in L1, put both blacks in the N term.Dont forget to connect the earths, you may need a seperate connector for them.

what type of lights are they?

check the contact rating of the photocell - especially if you are using halogens.
