Hi RobWe are staying in Shanghai for 5 days...internal flight to HK for 5 days and back to Shanghai for 1 night before flying back to UK.

Hong Kong is considered a third country so UK > Shanghai > Hong Kong allows the stop in Shanghai. Since you have officially left China, you can then go Hong Kong > Shanghai > UK.
