Replacement spotlight shades

Grrrr...came home to find a hangdog 12 year old. He and a friend thought it was really fun to swing something around the living room, and one of the glass shades on the spotlights is broken.
I've already checked where I got the light fitting from, and they don't make it any more.
What I need, if it's available, is a set of three replacement glass shades in order to change them all. It's a three-way GU10 spotlight fitting, and the shades slip over the outside and attach with three screws. Failing that, a cheap spotlight with plain and compatible glass shades that I can cannibalise....
I've had no luck so far Googling or on ebay, but maybe I'm not using the correct key words?
Thanks for any help!

Thank you, Owain.

I think the chances of finding 'compatible' glass bits are slim.
You could just remove the other 2 shades, at least they'd all match.
Argos have a range of GU10 triple spots for £15 - £30+ but I see you're using LED equivalents, which are a bit harder to conceal and look nice.A kind word lasts a minute, a skelped erse is sair for a day.0
