Doesn't the drive pop out of the laptop as a separate entity?

Tans have you wiped the spunk off - a bit of propanol will get rid of most of the gunk and Fred is right you'll scratch the DVD if you try an play it with a paper clip

No not a paper clip, that's for opening the draw. We are looking for something to release the whole drive from the laptop.
Mine just sort of "unclips" from the caddy via a (pushed in so it's flush) tab button.
I guess it is possible there are other types of DVD drive, maybe some require you to open the laptop case or something. What laptop make/model is it?
