Unhappy

Car developed a strange one this morning.
When changing up from 2nd to 3rd, difficult to get in gear. Resistance with a slight grind as it goes in.
Changing down from 4th to 3rd - ok.
Changing up 2nd to 3rd and doubleclutching - ok.
If you put it into 3rd fast either way - ok.
Anyone got any ideas?
