I can go one day later...Christmas Day (some years ago). Got up early to get the oven on and the Turkey in it. Minor firework display
- oven element burnt out.
Off came the side panels etc., for me to find that there were
two elements in the oven - in series. One was intact. Where to find something of sufficient power handling to put in series? Answer - the grill. Duly wired up (fortunately all done with slip-on spade connectors), and the bird went in. We ate around 6.00p.m., having used the grill (which became a minor oven in itself) to deal with the trimmings, hence saving opening the oven door too often.
