Hi Phranque Just brand/product protection, one .co.uk and one .com I currently have the .com set up as 301. I was a bit concered as the tempory holding page which was up during construction seemed to get indexed under the .com Today I can see that pages are now being indexed under the .co.uk domain. Which is what I want.

yes - that's what you want and the 301 is the correct solution for your application. you want to keep track of requests for inner pages on the .com since you want to avoid multiple hops when redirecting. if this occurs you should set up a virtual host for that hostname and do all the canonicalization redirects you would do on the .co.uk.
