Default V50 Door Lock

Apologies if this is a duplicate question ( I did search but couldn't find it ).....

I have a V50 2.0d 2008 (euro4)
Neither remote fobs have worked since I've had the car (never really bothered me) but both keys start it & both blades open driver's door.

This morning it was completely frozen, so went through the usual routine of pouring warm water down the door, and then heat the blade - insert - wiggle - remove & reheat - insert - wiggle etc etc.

It got to the point where it turned in the "locking" direction, but not the "unlock" way. WD made no difference. Left the car all day, came home & it still wont turn to unlock.

As far as I can see there's no keyhole in the passenger door or boot/hatch lid....( is that right??)

I've also tried sliding a bent coathanger down but it wont go passed the inner rubber.......am I missing something or trying in the wrong place??
clearly I'd be crap as a car thief

any advice would be great, as I can't stomach £25 each way in cab fares for long.
Many thanks
