Regarding blindspots yes it is mandatory to check blindspots when moving off from a stationary position, which you was still driving so that's null and void. It is however considered bad etiquette if you are turning right and don't have a full field of vision if you don't check your blindspot whilst maneuvering, overtaking something etc.
Basically if you think to yourself that there may be a bike filtering etc then you *SHOULD* do a quick blindspot check, though it isn't mandatory IIRC.
As for the bloke overtaking in a residential area he's wrong...completely wrong!
