It then took a further 20 mins to tease open the roots.

OMG I've never seen so many roots. I have no idea how on earth they were all packed in there so tightly.

There were very few rotten roots. I washed them gently. It is now re-potted in fresh bark and in a much more suitable sized pot and back on my window sill.

Am hoping the flowers don't drop.....
