Notes:

Gross dividend = (10/9)*Net dividend.

Taxable gross income = Gross salary + other income + grossed up dividend - tax free allowance.

Dividends are taxed at the higher rate of 32.5% for income up to £150,000 and at the additional rate of 42.5% thereafter. The first 10% is already paid via a tax credit.

The additional tax due is paid as part of your annual tax return.
