Broken kettle?

Hello!
Apologies for so many questions on here! but I have just broken my kettle- I think the element is gone (as it otherwise lights up, it just does not heat up).

Is there any way to fix a broken element (its the hidden variety) or is it dead now?

Thankyou in advance to anyone who knows the answer to this and apologies if this is in the wrong place!:o Am trying to save money!

    Not fixable, even if they were it would cost more to do it than buy a new one, especially as you can pick one up for a £5 or so if you're not too fussy.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    I'm pretty sure that it is unfixable, that's why I never spend more than a tenner on a kettle.
