Tow bar removal help after rear shunt

Hi as per my other thread I now have my lady back but I am still waiting for new towbar to be delivered, however garage has left the old one in and in trying to remove the key turns but the handle doesn't seem to want to pull all the way out to be able to twist and release
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks Andy

If the hitch needs replacing then I’m guessing it’s after bending so... Don’t even touch it, Let the garage do it. Then measure it exactly compared to another Discovery. If it has bent it might have also bent the crossmember. Crossmembers aren’t that hard to replace.
