Slighty OT - Gas cooker thermastat not really working   
Got a gas cooker ... and when you light it the flame goes full whack

But then stays there, even when you lower down the gas mark it just stays on 
high at the flame.

It burns everything in the oven - night mare

Any ideas or things to check ?

It sounds like the thermostat has gone.
If you don't know what you are doing, call in a CORGI gas engineer who 
repairs cookers.
