Rather than than applying to those places, apply to uni's where you meet their grade requirements and where they're not too bothered about GCSE's. Bear in mind it's not only your grades they look at.

From what I remember, most if not all (I think Leeds is the exception), require at least a B in GCSE English Language, with some even wanting an A grade. Have you considered resitting the GCSE in college?
