This doesn't make sense, did the battery go flat, have you disconnected it at some point?
Assume you have only one key? At what point did the central locking activate?
I don't know the answer to this.. what happens if you disconnect/reconnect the battery on a locked car where the key is in the ignition? Assume it will stay locked but I'm not sure, I've not tried this.
Do you have the valet key? It's a regular key blade without the fob part

Well it's not deadlocked so you should be able to do what thieves do in movies 
I once managed to drop my only key fob down the side of the driver's seat while getting out of the car at work. I'm still not entirely clear on the sequence of events but must have caught the lock button as I dropped the fob & the door slammed shut. I called out the RAC & the guy very quickly slid an air wedge into the top of the door which when inflated gave sufficient gap to hook a long metal tool onto the door catch & lift it up to open.

There is a way, but not for an open forum for thieves to read.

To be fair, the OP did ask for a PM with the answer, rather than open forum.
If a member of AA, RAC or such...just give them a call - assuming you have home start!

I just PM'd the wrong person.To be fair, the OP did ask for a PM with the answer, rather than open forum.

So, I went back in and added @Mcgill84

Wonderful! Did it just pop the tailgate lock or all of them (I'd really like to know)?

I don't know, everyone says "Never Use Superlocking". I am pleased you got in there ok.

Yep, a wedge of wood or such will hold top corner enough for you to go fishing with a long strong coat hanger thickness of wire to pull a catch or leaver.
I got stuck in my 2016 Scooby this way, wind, and recovery firm did this too
