Cordoba doors won't unlock - help from Australia

Hi, we have a '96 Corboba GLX - standard fare release in Australia. Problem is, all of a sudden none of the doors will unlock, though the boot and petrol cover have.
How do we get in to the car? Is there a way of releasing the backseat rests from the boot so we can get in throught the back?
Is there some sort of manual override for the door locks. The keys activate the central locking but nothing happens at the doors?
The only advice at the moment is to break one of the windows !
HELP

Either break a window, or get in the boot & kick the top left (or right) corner of the seat back where it clamps up

Can you not unlock the drivers door? Or is it delocked?

Sounds like the vacuum pump is broken though... handily that's in the boot on the right hand side behind the wheel arch (I think)

I'd guess if you can get into the boot and at the central locking pump, you can then apply pressure or vacuum to the respective door pipes to activate the door locks. Bit of a guessing game as to which is which but some common sense should sort you out.
