Can you hear the drain pump running, Phil? If you can, the blockage may well be at the undersink coupling, if appropriate. If you can only hear a faint humming noise, the blockage is in the pump motor iteself (down below..........).
Pull the plug before sticking fingers in!

Which bit of "Unplug it" is causing the problem?

Dont turn it upside down 
It can be accessed by the two screws holding the panel at the front under the lower edge of the door. Remember to pull the plug out before attempting anything.

The pump is right there in the front but a bit fiddly and messy to get out. Whatever, make sure the dishwasher is un plugged before touching anything. Use this link to find an engineer: http://www.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/search/fi ... ineer.html
