Awesome. So put into shell script and added for loop.
Seems to work on 2 files I tested it on, so looking promising.
Thanks to everyone for all their help.

Code:
#!/bin/bash
for file in *.html;
do
sed 's#\(img src=\)"\(.*\.[jpg][pin][gf]\)"#\1"./images/\2"#g' $file > "$file.tmp" && mv "$file.tmp" "$file"
done

haven't tested it yet with png file types, but it did replace all code lines when it was a gif or jpg, so will do a final test with pngs shortly.

Definitely worked for images, now have to do the same for all the pdf files.
But below code doesn't seem to do what I need, any advice please?

Code:
for file in *.html;
do
sed 's#\(a href=\)"\(.*\.[pdf]\)"#\1"./pdfs/\2"#g' $file > "$file.tmp" && mv "$file.tmp" "$file"
done
