If I have leggy seedlings should I just scrap them and start again or pot them on? If I pot them on should I bury some of the stem?

I'd give them a go and pot them deeper (within about an inch of the leaves). Sow some more later this month just in case.

Can you find a brighter spot to keep them?

You can bury the stem almost up to the bottom set of leaves and they should be fine.
