Hi Romatone, to me it sounds like the thermocouple cutting out rather than the thermostat, (it is there to prevent gas flow if the flame should go out). Perhaps it's faulty or just not in the correct position and the thermocouple simply doesn't stay hot enough.

This is a dreadful drawing, but have a look at this link and zoom in to find item number 19 towards the top right. The thermocouple usually sits near the main jet to position within the flame to detect the burner is running. It's been a while since I had one of these ovens, but from memory you should locate it towards the left and just looks like a dark copper probe, maybe 30-40mm in length. You may find it's fallen from a clip and not sitting near the flame.

just before you move the thermocouples 'hot' end about.....
Check that the end that fits into the flame failure valve is screwed in nice and tight. Its attached with a small nut and sometimes that nut may be a little loose, therefore causing the valve to close down and shut the gas off. Worth a look as a 2 minute fix?

It is likely to be the control valve. Change them frequently if thermocouple is not the problem
