Blocked hotend

I had my Mk3s running overnight. I was a bit concerned there was a chance it might run out of filament but was expecting it to sense the filament had run out and pause. When I looked at it in the morning it had carried on as if there was filament and was in mid air. 
I stopped the job and went to load new filament. It heated up to PETG settings and then I attempted to feed the filament  but it appears to be blocked and didn’t feed the new filament in. Should I heat the hotend up higher to try and melt the blockage out? Open to any suggestions from anyone who’s experienced a similar problem.

Thanks
Graham
