Definitely fridge is less than 6°C, it’s usually around 2°C and everything up the back gets partly frozen! Thanks for the info about potato, I had no idea about that!
If your fridge is reliably less than 6 degrees, then forget about fridge proving. Yeast is very flexible, but lower than that temp it dies. If you have a cold bathroom that’s above 6 degrees, that might work better for proving. Just remember to take it back into the kitchen before the family showers en masse.
