Just an FYI to everyone the step of removing the hose is quite important as with these systems it's easy for air to get trapped. Trapped air my not cause any issues straight, away but after a long drive the coolant may be forced out of the cap on the resivour. There is another way which isn't necessarily easier but uses 2 pipes that are more accessible.

Thanks for the tip!
With the upper heater supply hose, you say disconnect that and do what exactly?

With the upper hose disconnected, add coolant until bubble-free coolant emerges from the hose/stub, then reconnect it. It's just a way of allowing the air to escape.
Shouldn't you open the heater valve (turn the heating on) before draining (and keep it open while bleeding a new coolant into the system)?

There is no actual heater valve in the coolant circuit, so turning the heater on or off won't affect the coolant flow. It should bleed fine using the procedure in the video!

Disconnect the upper heater hose at the engine compartment bulkhead.

Do you run idle with the reservior cap off?

Yes. After the initial filling, this is what the manual says: 'cover the filler opening to prevent coolant splashing out. '
I Couldn't start the car because the key is in the bonnet lock
How did you start the engine while the key remained in the bonnet lock? You assume everyone has 2 keys?
