If it doesn't spin up then it's knackered. Not a chance of getting data or any content back unless a company specialising in this can get it back. Would cost £££ though and there is no guarantee they can get it all back.

Try Scan for cheap hard-drives (www.scan.co.uk). 
 
Is the knackered drive still within warranty? If it's a 20Gb (ie. old), not too likely, but worth checking...
