Check in the engine bay to see if any cables look disturbed thinking of the throttle position sensor.
Disconnect the battery for 30 minutes you will need your radio code.

So the slightly high idle speed has gone?

No still at 1200rpm,& the revs fall really slowly even when still,but especially when moving,

Maybe take it to someone else to get their professional opinion and see what they think, they might think it's the clutch.

So,after checking & cleaning all connections & hoses decided to take the clutch pedal switch off & result,car is not over revving,still ticking over at around 1100rpm but a lot better.so going to change plugs tps & icv to see if that sorts the idle.

There is a guide to cleaning the icv in the wiki.
