Welcome to the forum. That's awkward, with two other people try pushing down on the rear corners of the hood whilst simultaneously pulling the release.
Cheers,

Do not attack it with a crowbar 'just yet'!!!! (the hood opens away from the windshield, one catch on each side near the window)

For tech help make your post in the XJR section, you will get more hits, from the guys in the know.
