basically in the first section (which works) if the domain is webshop then it will redirect to the /shop directory on website.
the second section if it is a straight url of webshop it goes to the index page.
the third section is where my problem lies if a user clicks on an old link (eg www.website.co.uk/shop/c1/this-category) i need it to redirect to www.webshop.co.uk/c1/this-category
i have tested
^shop/(.*)$ http://www.website.co.uk/$1 [QSA,L,R=301]
SECONDLY
in the /shop/ directory i have another .htaccess file (below)
php_value display_errors onRewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?webshop\.co\.uk$
RewriteRule ^c([0-9]+)/[^/]+_all$ /shop/category.php?cid=$1&tp=1[QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^c([0-9]+)/[^/_]+$ /shop/category.php?cid=$1[QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^p([0-9]+)/[^/]+$ /shop/product.php?pid=$1[QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^brand/([0-9]+)/[^/]+$ /shop/results.php?brand=$1[QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^((urllist¦sitemap¦gss).*\.(xml¦txt¦xsl)(\.gz)?)$$1[L]
all the status bar links and hyperlinks look like this
www.webshop.co.uk/p2/this-product
www.webshop.co.uk/shop/p2/this-product
Within each group, you need "most specific" (i.e. affects the least number of URLs) listed first, and 'least specific' (i.e. affects the most number of URLs - catches anything not already actioned by the preceding rules) last.
Every redirect should contain the canonical domain in the target URL, as well as [R=301,L].
Rewrites should not accept URL requests for Duplicate URLs. That is, place a redirect from non-www to www before the rewrite. Don't let the rewrite capture both non-www and www URL requests.
Likewise, don't let trailing slash be optional as input URL to a rewrite. Set up a preceding redirect to 'fix' the URL to one format, before the rewrite kicks in.
You must add a required space before the [FLAGS] in most lines of code above.
Correct the code as detailed above and then post again, so that any remaining issues can be debugged.

i'm not sure i'm following this.
the third section
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?website\.co\.uk$
RewriteRule ^shop/(.*)$ http://www.website.co.uk/$1 [QSA,L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^((urllist¦sitemap¦gss).*\.(xml¦txt¦xsl)(\.gz)?)$$1[L]
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)$ /hide/engine.php?file=$1 [QSA]
seems to be working. except if i directly enter the url
http://www.website.co.uk/shop/c1/this-category
www.website.co.uk/this-page
Your second section contains a rewrite.
Your third section contains a redirect and a rewrite.
You MUST list ALL of the redirects first, before you list ANY of the rewrites.
You need to add a single # on each and every line that is currently blank.
