Saxo 1.4 auto stuck in reverse and wont select d/p/n

    hi all, im new here and in need of help.
    im not the remotest bit mechanical so you will need to give me advice in the simplest possible way, haha.
    today i selected reverse to pull into a space and there was a clunk and then the gear stick went floppy. i tried to select drive and nuetral but it stayed in reverse.
    i spoke to someone who said it is possibly the linkage?
    it is now stuck where i left it and it wont start due to it being in reverse.
    is there any way that i can knock it out of reverse so i can either tow it OR even better get it into drive so i can get it home?
    any advice is greatly appreciated.
