can you be more detailed...explain exactly what happens?

Rule out the obvious. Fuel starvation for example. Does it run ok in Idle? Is it misfiring?

Fuel ok, Running fine when idle also doesn't misfire. Only starts to judder when changing from 1st upwards (ok in 1st). As build revs up it then starts to judder ( feels like you've got 4 flat tyres, but havn't!) Does feel like it comes from the rear?????

Thank you all for advice, it was indeed the prop shaft u/j & the drag end was worn.
All repaired & driving well again, not feeling like jelly!!
