A yogurt-smoking tofu-weaving friend of mine used to cook on something
called a Remoska(sp?) but can't get a replacement any more, as
apparently they catch on fire (as hers did, so she doesn't want the
same thing again). When she explained how it worked, I said I
remembered seeing an informercial in the US for a mini hot air
roasting thing, which can take a chicken. It sounded ideal, so I said
I'd look on the interweb.

I've googled myself silly. All I managed to find was reference to
something called NESCO, but the only thing I can find in the UK is a
manual for one.

Does anyone remember what these things are called? IIRC, they just
swirl a vortex of extremely hot air down from the lid, and the food
sort of self-fries.
If someone knows where I can get one in the UK, (preferably with the
current £10 off GoogleBonus thingy), I'd be chuffed!

I threw away a small catalogue with one in it the other day, I'll see if
it's in the green bin ... hang on ...

Right, in this Mickey Mouse catalogue it's called a mini halogen oven and is
£39.99. I looked at it but decided that it was too energy hungry (1000W).
Mail me if you want more details of the supplier.
