Thank you Nicolas. I hang my head in shame at such a simple oversight
:[ Anyhow adding a quote to the end of the fontpath produced an error,
but adding a quote at the end of the first drawtext argument did the
trick:
PS C:\Users\kieranjol> C:\Users\kieranjol> ffmpeg -i
"C:\Users\kieranjol\Desktop\untitled folder 3\New folder\tes  tsrc2
.mov" -vf "drawtext='fontfile=C\:\\Windows\\Fonts\\arial.ttf:fontcolor=white:timecode=01\:00\:00\:00:rate=25/1:boxcolor=
0x000000AA:box=1:fontsize=48:x=360-text_w/2:y=480',drawtext=fontfile='C\:\\Windows\\Fonts\\arial.ttf:fontcolor=white:tex
t=testtext:fontsize=41:x=360-text_w/2:y=274:alpha=0.3"
"C:\Users\kieranjol\Desktop\untitled folder 3\New folder\tesfffff
.mov"
