There _is_ nothing to click.  The words are all set separately, with a
distance between them.

Perhaps you want something like

\header {
    piece = "My Magnum Octopus"
    opus = \markup {
    \with-url #"http://www.bandsman.co.uk/"; \concat {
        "Nigel Horne " \italic "http://www.bandsman.co.uk";
    }
 }
}

instead.
