That's great news and many thanks for your help and quick response. I've taken the easy way out and installed the snap version. All working correctly now.

[Bug 1915161] Re: deja dup won't restore a folder where name contains apostrophe and space
Sorry you were hit by this issue! But good news is that a fix is available. It was caused by an interaction between Deja Dup and duplicity when a single quote was followed by a space. This was fixed upstream in duplicity 0.8.17 (and worked around in deja- dup 42.5). Both those fixes are in Ubuntu 21.04 already, so I'll mark this fixed in development Ubuntu. If folks want to backport a fix to Ubuntu 20.10, this patch to duplicity should be all that's needed: https://gitlab.com/duplicity/duplicity/-/commit/14f18f9112ce98ad6b5ba5cf58a8f6927dab Meanwhile, you can workaround this in Ubuntu 20.10 by either directly using the duplicity commandline to restore the file or switching to the snap version of deja-dup which has the latest fixes. Run "man duplicity" to see how to use its commandline (it's a bit complicated, but can be managed). Or "snap install deja-dup --classic" to install the latest Deja Dup.
