Why are two of my radiators not heating up?

My other radiators work fine, but two stay cold even when the heating’s on

"Could have air trapped in them. Try bleeding those 2 radiators to remove the air. Close off all radiators and only have one of them open, then try the other radiator to see if they heat up. You could have a blockage affecting those if in same part of property."

"It could be air or a blockage or even the thermostat pins might be stuck"

"First off, bleed the radiators, then it's Either the valve is closed or the pin on the thermostatic valve is stuck down to the off position."
