Can anybody advise what type of compost is best for growing potatoes in plastic bags (like barrels) as seen in mail order catalogues, and any tips for successful results.

I used ordinary multi purpose along with rotted garden compost from my bins and a pile of loose soil from around the garden.

When you think they normally grow in fields. They do require plenty of water though at least every other day.
