Mine was doing this last week, clean the ICV valve, if its focked then replace £55 from Vauxhall and the same from a auto factor.
Do a search on here for ICV and load's of helpful stuff comes up.

Could be worth popping the idle air control valve off and giving it a quick clean to see if its just covered in crud. Maybe clean your throttle body out with some carb cleaner too.

ok fair enough, but im sure i have this problem, driving its fine, its just when pulling upto a junction and putting the clutch in, revs drop really (stupidly low) coughs splutters and either picks up to normalish or dies??
if im correct please consider what i said, cos i had this, really annoying for ages, replaced loads of things, spent rather a lot, then it turned out just to be the clocks!!
