Get yourself a Gunson Easibleed, most bleed problems solved.

Before getting the 'eezibleed' which will do the job: try opening up all bleed nipples, top up reservoir and eventually the fluid will begin to dribble out of the bleed nipples (via gravity) don't press the brake at this point. once fluid has appeared tighten all nipples except furthest from reservoir and commence normal bleeding procedure i.e. pedal down- tighten nipple- pedal up- undo nipple etc etc.
