a bit stuck with tiling

[White Room]

The floor screed would have been 50mm and a thin roof slate would have laid over cavity, anything thin will crack with movement has as proved with your tile.

As said previous a wood threshold would be your best bet.

was looking now at this area and can't quite figure out how I would mount this wood threshold, the only way I can think of is to glue it to the DPC but this will move as well when you step on it.

I get this quite a lot on some new builds, I just cut the DPC away as there's no other way of doing it.
The level might be down slightly, build it up with some tile adhesive.

what do you use to fill the gap? is there any risk once I cut of the DPC ( I mean in terms of damp etc ) ?

Drill, plug and screw into the bricks, before screwing use some quality Silicon into the hole to keep the damp proofing active.

whitebeam thank you for your suggestions today, will wait to see if others came across this issue and what was the solution, and will think through what I will do.

I found someone with similar issue, and I think they have a fairly good solution ?

I decided to fill the gaps with the cavity foam, will cut it and level up
