Have I lost the plant or is there something I can do to retrieve it?
No, if it is otherwise healthy it will recover. Figs put up new stems all
the time in the growing season. Just trim of the broken bits now and feed
it next spring.

Thanks for the reply. It's a relief to know that it will come back. It looks a bit silly at the moment, as though I have planted a twig, but I will follow the advice & hope for the best.
