Is it cheaper to buy return flight to UK from SG via a UK website or via SG website, or is it pretty much six/half dozen?

If you are flying to UK, from SG, and buy your ticket from a UK agent, there is some fulfilment issues, and you may be forced to pay some additional taxes
Some agents overcome this by having a contra agreement, most don't
check if you can book the ticket first ..

I suggest to try web search aggregators like skyscanner for cheap fares. Good luck.

Yeah just use websites like expedia to compare prices. But generally I don't think the price difference will be significant enough to make too much of a difference.

If you are buying from Singapore Airlines, try clearing your caches. Accordingly to the husband, the site tracks the frequency of you checking the flight prices, and the prices do goes up if you keep checking the same flight.
