Best adjust it up with the adjuster on the rear shoes. Then you can take the slack out of the cable by taking up the adjuster under the handbrake. Take off rear drums and you willsee a little adjusting wheel which you turn with a screwdriver.

yeh but the corsa is self adjusting but they often seize up....

probably worth having a look in the drums if you have lots of clicks on the handbrake
