and similar findings under the /pub/static/frontend/buzzy/default/en_GB/images folder.

Am I looking at the wrong place to download the original images and optimise?

check the images in your custom theme at app/design/frontend/[Vendor]/[Theme]/web/images/ then download the original images and optimize it and upload as the same path then deploy your theme below command.
bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f
