Welcome to the Club, John.

 

First, is the boot locked?

 

Obviously you cannot open it electrically, but there is a key entry available on an S type.

 

Just look under the boot lip and to the left you will see it.  Just open it with the key.

 

Regards,

Unless theyve changed over the years there is a keyhole on the boot lid, well hidden but mine has one, near the centre look UP at the boot edge.

 

If not you'll have to jack car up and get jump lead onto the starter solenoid (Black to anything metal (earth)) and while youre holding the live to the solenoid press the keyfob. If you can open the bonnet, you could put a live to anything (almost) electrical, but Im guessing you're locked out too?
