Remove Bottom Bracket on Giant OCR 2

Hello,

I'm trying to remove the bottom bracket from a 2005 Giant OCR 2 that was originally purchased in England. Everything's pretty much straight Tiagra, but I can't get this bottom bracket off.

I have the correct remover for it, and it fits properly, but I can't get anything to budge. If I understand it correctly, I have to turn the non-drive side counter-clockwise, but I can't get it to move.

Before I break anything I wanted to confirm that I am in fact turning the correct side in the correct direction.

I've included as many pictures as I can to help clarify the issue - I'd be happy to provide additional pics.

Thanks for any insight you might be able to lend.

The cranks (no problem getting them off):
