I know this is going to sound a bit silly but is the steering lock on ? and maybe the power steering has pulled the steering to one side after the engine had stopped.
Try pulling the steering wheel one way or the other while turning the key. It may take a bit of pulling mind.
Hope this gets you out of it.

Does the key turn at all - or has the barrel seized

New barrels(if it is that and it sounds like it) buy the way are around £20 quid and they can be set to fit your existing keys ,although you may have to get new one's too!
