Built-in oven's blown its element. I was waiting for it to get to the right temperature to bake some bread and suddenly there was a loud fizzing noise. When I looked over it was glowing yellow at the back with blue flickering so I quickly turned it off before it could blow a fuse.

Good thing I hadn't actually put the bread in. I cooked it in my worktop small oven/grill unit instead. Tight squeeze and needed a foil cap to stop it burning on the exposed element but did OK.

Found out the oven manual where I've noted the spare part numbers and types of element that fit. Fortunately although the oven was marketed by B&Q with the kitchen as "Banquet Cuisine" underneath its "Homark" and it's a common part across a range of other brands. Have to get one ordered up, around £21 last time so not too bad.
