I ran out of time to do any more testing so next time I see the same situation occur I'll try 'en-GB' instead.

Sorry for the bum steer on 'en-uk' instead of 'en-gb', blame Brexit.
But as I understand it: if the language setting in the opf is 'en' and the dictionary setting in Preferences is United Kingdom, then the spell check should be using the en-GB dictionary, as per the Dictionary selection dialogue in Editor->Preferences:

You can change the dictionaries used for any specified language.
A language can have many country specific variants. Each of these variants can have one or more dictionaries assigned to it. The default variant for each language is shown in bold to the left.
You can change the default country variant as well as changing the dictionaries used for every variant.
When a book specifies its language as a plain language, without any country variant, the default variant you choose here will be used.

This is how it works for me, but I should add I do not use the English dictionary that's shipped with calibre.
