Broken door hinge replacement on Hotpoint Ultima

I have a Hotpoint Ultima 1200 washing machine with a broken hinge but I have difficulty removing the hinge bearings. Do I simply remove the five screws holding the font panel to release these bearings. I did this but something seems to be holding the two doors panels together and I don't want to fotrce anything.

    Thanks - this gave me the confidence to prize the two halves apart once I had recemoved the screws. I was afraid there was something else holding the two parts together.

Remove all the screws securing the 2 door halves together, and gently prize apart the two halves with a screwdriver or similar, be careful not to drop the door glass.. You will probably be better off removing the door from the front of the m/c altogether.
Replace broken parts as req'd.
