Broken Oven Light

Small Edison screw 25W 300°C bulb has gone in our oven. The glass bit fell out when we removed the cover, leaving the base firmly (too firmly for my other half with a pair of needle nose pliers) jammed in the threads. I'm too arthritic to get down there, and probably couldn't do any better anyway. Any bright ideas please? I wondered if something like an Easiout might do it, if I could get one. I can't get down there to see what is left inside the thread, although a photo with a phone camera might solve that one.
