i am getting a sort of groaning/clunking noise from what seems like the rear passenger side back wheel. This only seems to happen when the car is in 'D' but with footbrake on, say at a junction or traffic lights. Any ideas guys??

Notoriously difficult to describe noises and even harder to diagnose over the 'net

Sounds to me like it may be brake related though so I'd start by looking at the rear discs, pads and handbrake shoes

i know what you mean mate, will have a nose!

Best way to diagnose noises is to have an assistant replicate the circumstances on the drive, while you nose about. Obviously make sure assistant doesn't run you over.

Bouncing suspension from the boot or rocking side to side is often helpfull.

Could be rear donut bushes ... i get a groan from the back as the car squats down when on handbrake/footbrake and going in "D".
I know my rear donuts are needing done though ... had a go but quickly gave in

if its clunk clunk clunk, bang bang bang and alters with speed its hand brake retainer spring or springs come off the hand brake shoe.
