hand brake not releasing (vectra)?

Hi,
No it's not normal, you need to check the linkage into the rear drums and lubricate the various points under the car. I would also suggest removing your rear drums and checking the pads themselves. You may even have a spring disconnected, which is a potentially serious problem.
Cheers now
