Durham no way at all. English is by far it's most competitive course. You'll probably be OK for Exeter and Kings

Show confidence, grades give you a boost but part of getting a place is down to what you're like as a person. If not, work harder to obtain higher grades.

They will look at grades in context. If you are at a high performing school where everyone gets AA* then these grades may count against you but if you attend a low performing school then they would look on them more favourably.

So do you think going to a state public school would benefit me?

State or Private really doesnt matter as the context is what does the average student at a particular school achieve. So if you are getting A/B at a school where the overall average of student grades is C/D then that looks better than if the average student grade was A/B

These are just your AS grades. Just make sure your predicted grades for A2 are good and apply. Theres no harm in at least trying.
