Quite surprised I am too. It's not the fuses (i doubt two will have popped at once, although i did swap a fuse from the radio and still nothing), the bulbs still work (via the hazard lights). So the stalk seems to be culprit.
How easy are these to replace / fix? I've seem some folks on here recommend blowing air into the boot seal thingy?

Steering wheel off, which may prove to be the biggest hurdle.
Remove column shrouds, a few screws, remove a few more screws on the indicator and wiper stalks, unplug the wires and swap over new part.
Once you look at it, it's pretty straight forward.

You haven't given us much detail about your car, so difficult to know whach of the two types you need.
If the switch is the culprit, it's not too hard to change at all.

The two types are easily identifyable, after folowing @Anaconda's instructions, the multi pin plastic connectors are either black (with round pins) or White with square pins ... although the switch is the same the connectors are not interchangeable.

Ah right sorry. It's a 300 TD Defender.
 
I have a OEM stalk if you want one. I replaced the original thinking it was faulty but it wasn't.
Postage only. fiver.
