Is a carbon filter the same  as a pollen filter or does it go somewhere different?

Yes and no...

Carbon filter is required for any pre/mid facelift cars with Electronic Climate Control and ALL facelifts :y

A standard pollen filter will do exactly what it says on the tin if fitted to a facelift, but the system is designed to work with the carbon filter :y

thanks to all who replied to my problem. Ive done everything now except put in a carbon filter, so that is my next move and hopefully it will cure the problem. If not ive ordered a 12v dehumidifier online.
Whilst im here, whenever I disconnect my battery, I cannot reset the clock time and date. Then after a while it does it on its own to the right time and date. Totally baffled by this.

It's supposed to do that, it uses the RDS signal. It is possible to turn the RDS off ..... really can't remember now ..... for when you might want to set the time to Frence time etc  :y
