I own a 206 GTI 2L 1999 and i was driving home (thankfully) and indicated as normal (right) and as i got round the corner the indicator stick went back to place but the indicator stayed on.. i tried indicating the opposite way to try and reset it but it still carried on indicating by itself, so turned off car and still carried on so took key out and stopped.. tried putting key back in and turning ignition on and still indicating constantly. its not an out of tune indicate it just normal.
Can anyone help or experienced this before?!

I would take a guess at the stalk being broken

Yep, sounds like stalk switch broken/stuck.
eBay is your friend.

Wouldn't fit the OPs car as his is pre-plexed being a '99. Hope he's not the one who bought it.
Pretty sure it should look more like this
I think there are 4 variations, so be careful if buying of ebay. Check it has all the functions you need ie front fogs, headlamp type.

It might be that the switch has got metal shavings in it, they wear over time. Sounds odd but maybe blow some compressed air down it?
