not really the hard way,but more "time consuming"..........

you will have to bleed the brake quickly to get pressure so it works.

I just take out the pads start to pump the brakes til the pistons pop out and then i put the pad back again(or a spanner etc) to make sure they come out evenly.
All you gotta do then is pop them out.

Sorry if explained terribly but basically the effort of pulling them out is far more than settin the system up again and pumping them out

Hence the apostrophies, time consuming = more effort = 'hard' :p

Anyway, done it now, took some doing but it slowly edged out and it's now cleaned up. Need to order a new bleed nipple now as I've managed to round it off, but then it can go back together and hopefully work again \o/ :)

Cheers again everyone :)
