Should the outer steel container of my Pifco slow cooker get very hot ?

My Pifco Slow cooker 4852 has been working perfectly for years, however I noticed to day that within minutes the steel outer conatainer was very hot. Does this mean that the thermostat has gone?
Is the earthenware casserole oven proof?
