More than likely an element has blown. For information only. As above electricity kills.

who we talking about here?

ON TOPIC:-

Yunk the oven out the dashboard or whatever you call it - YUNK the top off i guess there will be lucar connectors on the element - disconnect these and stuff some finest quality newspaper under them - then turn rcd off - turn oven to on - turn rcd on and see if it goes bing

if it does then like monty python "Ahh i see you have amachine which goes bing"

if if dont download new element off ebay.

have you receently washed it?

The thermostat is a wire that will be in the top left or right of the oven. If it's making contact with the metal hole that it goes through it will likely trip. You can move it but it's likely already needing replaced as you will find the damage has been caused from the tripping and it won't keep to a certain temp now
