I intend to fly from the London area of the UK to Sydney to arrive in
Sydney on 5th April and leave Sydney for the UK on 30th April. I would
like to break the journey in each direction for a night or two.

Depending on your airline you have a choice of stopovers.
Malaysia Airlines - Kuala Lumpur, modern city, lots of shopping. Malaysian
also offer a free flight to another airport in Malaysia if you take their
stopover package hotel which btw are relatively cheap and pretty good. You
can choose places like Langkawi, Penang, Terrenganu etc.

Singapore Airlines - Stopover packages available with lots of hotels in
Singapore. http://www.singaporeair.com/saa/
Cathay Pacific - Stopovers in Hong Kong.

Royal Brunei - Stopovers in Bandar Seri Begawan the capital of Brunei.

Emirates - Stopover in Dubai http://www.emirates.com/
British Airways/Qantas - Stopovers in Singapore. The added attraction with
BA/Q is that you should be able to get a cheap intra Australia flight with
them. http://www.emirates.com/ and/or

There are some other choices but those could mean a change of plane in
Europe, Africa or the Americas.
So lots of choice.
