Default Handbrake Stuck on a few clicks

I have a 53 plate ST170 Focus, it seems the handbrake is sticking, is this due to the cold weather on the handbrake cable. It wont release entirely, but there is a slight drag causing the rear disks and pads to overheat
I have wiggled the cable trying to unstick it but no joy. When you pull the handbrake level it is slack for the first 10mm of travel so its definately stuck
How can i fix this
