Not sure what you mean by "interesting" - but the best value redemptions are RFS ones to Europe. These are capped at £35 in fees for a return, plus the redemptions start at 9000 Avios for the shortest distance. (Places like Dublin, Paris, and so on)

Best to read up on RFS. Long haul redemptions can be eye watering unless you pull a few tricks or fly with another OW carrier.
