You need to get the water pump replaced, because the coolant is not circulating (that is why the radiator stays cold even though the engine is overheating). Because this requires the cambelt ("timing belt") to be removed and then put back in the correct position afterwards, this is not a simple job and is likely to cost you a couple hundred quid.
Take the opportunity to check your service history for if the cambelt is due to be changed in the next 10,000 miles - if it is, you can save money in the next couple of years by getting it changed at the same time.

First you have to make sure you are getting the right hose. The expedition has a bit of a nightmare going on there. Start at the water pump and follow that hose to the radiator assembly. The you will need either a straight screwdriver or a pair of water pump (also called channel locks) pliers to lossen the clamp and slide it away from the radiator. Then you can gently work the hose back and forth until it frees from the radiator. You can also use your screwdriver to gently work under the hose to release it. be careful not to bend the radiator. Good luck.
