I have just done my handbrake shoes the other day and at first I couldnt get the discs off. But I went and slackenend the adjusting nut off on the cable adjuster to give maximum slack and the discs came off with no problem at all.
The hardest bit was getting the 2 springs off which hold the shoes to the back plate. I had to rive these out then straighten them out again.
I also took a picture of the shoes and spring positions before hand with my mob phone just to make sure everything went back in the right place.
Took me about an hour in total to do the whole job.
