Default Removal Of Doors-mk1 Escort

I have finally got my project car MK1 Escort 2 door. I will put it up in the projects section when I have done a bit of work and I get my new computer. My question for today is how do you remove the doors? I can't see any bolts to undo.

Drivers side door off, but I an still trying to get the passanger side off. I think this door has never been off the car. Hopefully with time and WD40 I'll get it.
