You must be very clear about the route you fly. There is a theoretical risk that the landing in the UK could be deemed to be the point of import into the UK. This risk is low to nil for a proper international airport (Prestwick), low for an airport with local agreement (Wick), moderate to high for other airports, and certain if you make several stops in the UK. Although, I am not aware of anyone coming to grief with an Iceland, Wick, Denmark routing.
HMR&C checks inbound aircraft from Denmark against their import records.
On the forums there is plenty of info on what you can and can not do. Some right, some misleading, some historic, and some totally wrong. If you do this you want it done with a pro company who has professional liability insurance you can claim against if they have not advised you properly.
