If you have a good battery floor the throttle and keep it there.  I have had this problem with mine in ocassion generally starts to fire after a minute or two.  Or leave it till the morning and try again.

1) put your battery on charge, if jump leads are getting hot they are getting in the way

2) check you still have a good spark by moving one of the leads to a spare plug resting on top of the engine (sorry if this is teaching you to suck eggs)

3) look through the threads in the Disco forum, you're about the 3rd recently with non-starting problems, which is why I'm leaving the bonnet shut until the weather gets better.
