301 Redirect adding ?id=

I am attempting to add in a 301 to an old script of mine, but when I add the 301 I expect the old URL to be redirected to

http://www.newwebsite.co.uk/new-product.html

But instead I get

http://www.newwebsite.co.uk/new-product.html?id=old-product.html

What is wrong?

Below is my htaccess file, you can see the 301 I have added to this existing code near the top.

Options +FollowSymlinks

RewriteEngine On

Redirect 301 /old-product.html http://www.newwebsite.co.uk/new-product.html

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^websiteone\.co.uk$
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.websiteone.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^websitetwo\.co.uk$
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.websitetwo.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^websitethree\.co.uk$
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.websitethree.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]

Your redirect is done by your Redirect line;

Redirect 301 /old-product.html http://www.newwebsite.co.uk/new-product.html

...but the file will go on processing. The last RewriteRule...

RewriteRule (.*)$   include_file.php?id=$1 [NC,L,QSA]

...will also catch the same URL and rewrite it.

What you probably want to do is to replace the Redirect directive with a regular RewriteRule;

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/old-product.html [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://www.newwebsite.co.uk/new-product.html [R=301,L]

...which will redirect to the new URL and use the L flag to avoid processing the rest of the file.
