Default Door Stuck Closed on Renault, any ideas

Rear drivers side door on my megane is stuck shut, wont open from inside outside. Have managed to get the door card off but cant see anything.

Its almost as though its not unlocking the lock.

Any bright ideas?

A girl at work has just had exactly the same thing last week, the door wont open from inside or out. Took it into Renault and they found it to be the door catch mech jammed. Needed a new door catch mech and door handle fitted. Hers was under warrenty. Goodluck
