frozen seedlings

I have some delphinium and stock seedlings that are about 3" tall, pricked out from the autumn (when i ordered them as seedlings). they have frozen in their module trays in the polytunnel. what are the chances of their survival and is there anything i can do. ps i have since moved them to a less icy place but they still look dismal. thanks for any help!

Give them a chance let them thaw out slowly and naturally, they are both hardy plants so fingers crossed they will be ok

Delphs are perennials and recover but I've never found stocks to be hardy unless they prefer the milder UK climate.
