Unlock the boot, climb in, open the car and beat the damn thing to death with a spade....

Then buy a new one.

Best guess is one of these:
1. power door lock fuse has gone (#11 in under-dash fuse box on a classic, not sure on new age)
2. driver-door central-locking slave motor burnt out
3. some part(s) of the mechanical rods and linkages in the door-lock assembly has come loose or broken

Fixing it yourself will depend on level of electrical/mechanical know-how and tools available.
