Thanks for your responses to this.  I reduced the burden resistor to 440
ohms (for 0.1V/A) and got adequate linearity (with only 1V across the 240V
secondary ! )  and have now managed to capture the voltage and current
waveforms needed for the analysis.

It really was a nasty little transformer.  Next time I need to monitor mains
current waveform will go the optical isolator route instead.  They can give
quite good linearity if used with care and a bit of feedback.
