HOTPOINT ew81 electric oven?

BOTH THE HANDLES TO THE OVEN AND TOP OVEN DOORS ARE COMING LOOSE AND KEEP FALLING OFF HOW DO I SECURE THESE PROPERLY ?
PETER TWELLS, November 2009
There are two problems here, either the screws holding the handles have worked loose, which is easy, but you have to dismantle the inner glass door in order to reach them. Or, the brass inserts in the plastic handle have come loose. Still fairly easy as you have to do the same job as before but this time remove the handles and run a small amount of thin super glue around the inserts and let in dry before reassembling as before
