If you happen to have the gearbox cover out of the car (usually not the case, I
know), you can sit in the driver's seat and bleed the slave cylinder in place.
You need a piece of tubing going from the bleed valve into a jar in the
passenger footwell, and a ring wrench over the valve, and everything's within
reach.It's a bit ticklish getting the tubing in place, but once it's set up,
it's really very easy.
