In the past when I have had a similar problem I have just opened the bleed niple and left it until fluid drips out.
Back first but only open half a turn same with the front.
Plus keep an eye on the fluid level topping up when it drops a bit.

Zedhed,
I'm in Stafford up the M6 for 15 mins, & you are welcome to bring it to my place & we can sort it on Saturday or Sunday if you wish.

All tools here, just bring the car & a bottle of brake fluid... job done.

Regards
Grant B
