    An air lock?
    Would it be worth the call out charge?

    Turn off all the other radiators and run the heating, that will move the air lock.

    Same thing happened to me the other day. Rang my plumber, he said I had an airlock and told me to turn off all the other rads and turn the heating on.
    It worked.

    **Edit** Hah, you got there just before me Flood!

    Thanks for the tip. Tried turning all rads except the culprit and turned on the heating. But no effect. The 2 rads in this particular room have thermostatic valves so the latter might be the problem. Will have another go tomorrow.
