Etc....
I thought as I've got a big body repair to do, I would wiggle out a couple of very small dents at the same time

I'm going to practice on the dent in my tool chest first !

wow! They really do work!!!
A quid off ebay... bargain!
You literally just clean the area of the dent, slap a bit of hotmelt glue on them, press onto metal and wait a couple mins, then just pull the dent out... Toolchest looks as good as new, and thats thicker steel than the car.... Im fairly confident I can pull out the little dent on Hesketh with them. The bigger one, sadly is not in the paintless category, having been previously filled and painted and now cracking

But I will try and grab some pictures and a narrative

I have a couple of small dents that might react to this technique and have wondered about it before

I used a claw hammer and a block of wood, but you can get a handle that slips over them to just pull, or you can get an attachment to go onto a standard slide hammer.
There are some inexpensive kits on ebay that have a bar with two suction cups that has a screw mechanism to apply steady traction too.
If you search on youtube for glue pulling or paintless dent removal you will see loads of examples. One guy just stuffs a nail through a cork and glues that on!
I will try and put a list of vids and stuff on ebay.
I suggest you do as I did and have a practice on something first, and possibly a glue test inside the boot or somewhere out of site first.

I did do a search for paintless dent removal on eBay and found a couple of kits - one at £19 which had a puller with it and the glue sticks so may give that a go. Then again, I may just buy some of the plastic doodads, I've got some hot melt glue sticks and try with a claw hammer as you did.
Thanks again - it's nice to know that these actually work. I'm a bit suspicious of some of these gadgets but obviously, you've got it to work. Good enough for me.
