Right, so I tried the engine oil tip, its worked for all but one link so thanks Andy for the tip. Looks like it had gone slightly too far 
So back to changing it, which, with it being winter and me not having a garage is going to be a weekend job, so the missus is carless for the rest of the week.
I thought it was bad enough running the chain a bit past its best, but now I have to think about the possibility of no front sprocket nut with nackered threads, joy!
How does the issue manifest itself? The chain is jumping quite significantly still, but watching it when its up on the centre stand it looks like its a stiff link causing the jump but can't be really sure until I see the state of the front sprocket...
I love weekends at the moment, either work on the bike or work on stupid french cars!
