A WOMAN in York called the fire brigade after putting a jacket potato in the oven - and then being locked out of the room.

North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue service said the potato was put in the oven on a high temperature.

After switching on the oven the woman left the room, but the door handle broke - leaving her stuck outside and unable to switch off the oven.
