Hi, does anyone know if the plugs on a 155bhp PD do anything after starting? Mine has started running like a bag of **** while cold, cutting out and losing power etc, and this morning it was a real pig just to start. Is it worth trying a new set of glows before I get it put on a diagnostic tester?

Yes they do stay on after engine has started, how long they stay on varies with temperature and PCM.

You could do a basic continuity test on each plug without removal, just pull off the bus bar connector and check continuity between centre terminal and earth.
