I would add a musette or tote bag in the saddle bag or jersey pocket. Doesn't take much space and can be really useful to carry cans or any supplies around on the bike

Looks good.
You're never too far away from civilisation so you can always buy anything along the way.
Don't forget your tooth brush ;)

Ok so it turns out 2 dry bags will carry less than I thought haha. Have settled on this as final list:
Handlebar bag:
Bivvy, sleeping bag, silk liner. Sleeping mat and (maybe) tarp tied on top.
Saddle bag:
Down jacket, shorts, merino t-shirt, thermal top and bottoms for night, boxers, thermal socks, thermal gloves, microfibre towel, wool hat, spare bibs/jersey/base, phone charger and charging block, soap, head torch, camping knife. Flip flops tied on top.
I'll take 1 bottle of water and put 2 tubes, multitool, brake pads and quick link in bottle on second cage, have a frame pump.
Phone, rain cape, cycling gloves, arm and knee warmers in jersey pockets.
Hoping that will get me round the 5 days. We'll be passing through small towns so will eat along the way and pick up bags of cans to drink each night.
