how do I remove the ignition barrel from my astra van (1998)?

My key snapped in half inside my ignition barrel. It has been happily turning for months with me using the other half of the key. It has decided not to work any more so ive driilled it out at the expense of the old barrel. I have ordered a new barrel and key set but am unable to see how the old barrel can be removed. Can anybody help please?
