right, what you want to do is sort of be in and out of the car at the same time so you are able to rock the car back and forth.
Have the car in reverse first by the way.....this should help free it, then try the key in the ignition

does the engine actually turn over or does the car just make a clicking sound when you turn the key?

mine did this, it was just after had it changed, when took it in, the motor wasnt connecting with anything and was just spinning without turning engine over
new starter motor needed (but done under warranty as just had it done  )
