Its a long process Marty, got to keep that res full and keep pumping till all the air bubbles are out, a lot easier if you have someone to pump/fill res for you

So if I do it for long enough Pressure on the Pistons will occur and they will touch the pads? At the moment there is a space between the pistons and the pads and brake fluid is Travelling up the Bleeder Hoses I have attached but at low Pressure is that normal?

Don't know what kind of bleeder your using ,or is it just the clear pipe off the caliper nipple. but you will see the air bubble coming out of the caliper, once they appear to stop, keep the lever pulled in and tighten up the caliper nipple , then move to the other caliper and same thing, idea is to get all those air bubbles out

So if I keep bleeding eventually the Pistons have to touch the brake pads yeah? Because atm brake fluid is traveling up the Bleeder pipes I have attached to a bottle full of fluid but still no brakes?
