You have to apply a worrying amount of force to the key.

Happened to me a couple of years ago, AA man was braver than me, but then it wasn't his car or key.

He did unlock it though.

From other post's you have to crawl underneath and put jump leads on the starter terminal.
Good luck.

key in drivers doorlock and turn clockwise, needs more force than usual but it will unlock.
Note that the internal button won't come up but the door will open anyway.

Identify the 12V according to the socket on the vechicle end, attach the negative from a jump lead/battery to the trailer tow ball frame.  Push in a live wire with an inline fuse fitted, and if I am right then click the remote control and entry is gained.

That of course is if the  12v is a permanent live, I am sure others will confirm the details on the forum.
