Old CCJ settlement discussion breaks down, what happens next?

I phoned the current owners of 2 unsatisfied CCJs from over 10 years ago hoping to settle at 10%. I had not heard from these people for several years. I have not made payments for over 10 years, if at all since the CCJ was issued as I had no income at the time. My offers of 10% were refused. I can understand that.

I need to come back with more money which is not possible right now due to my financial obligations. I have not made any payments to either in over 10 years. I did contact them however. They are continuing to contact me now asking what I am going to do about these debts. 

My thoughts are to offer one of the two 20%, and see if I can get rid of one. 

The debt holders need to go back to court I understand, before I can be forced to pay anything. Will I have the chance to raise an objection in these proceedings? Can I ask for a copy of the Consumer Credit agreement or is that pointless once a CCJ has been issued?

Tactics, and an explanation of what the debtors options are going forward would be appreciated.
