When the car is not moving, the alternator is hardly putting out anything to cope with that kind of demand. Have you still got a bog standard battery? At least get a brand new corsa diesel battery and see how it goes

yup. 
 
Is the car charging the battery back up? I think you have an alt/wiring fault somewhere
