Radio Times review

After being hit on the head, terminal womaniser Steven Toast falls in love - with a man. And not just any man, but Jon Hamm, handsome star of Mad Men, who's making a film about Tommy Cooper in Dorset.

"I've literally never heard of him," Toast tells his giddy agent Jane Plough (pronounced Pluff). But once "the Hamm", as he is referred to throughout, walks through the doors of the decrepit Colonial Club, Toast (Matt Berry) is smitten. Not even he can resist the Hamm's fabled "charm and charisma" ("It's like black magic!").

Toast's puppy-like devotion - he makes Hamm a mix tape of marching tunes and spies on him as he undresses - is both idiotic and funny, and Hamm plays along with an admirable poker face. Watch out for guests Heida Reed (Poldark) and Brian Blessed as Toast's dad.

Yes it's silly, childish and crude, but Matt Berry and co deserve to be celebrated.

Toast of London: Matt Berry is as funny as ever

Judging from what we were shown at the screening I have a feeling that this might be the most accomplished series of Toast so far. With all the jokes hitting the right notes and the high level of respectable guest stars I do feel that Toast of London is fast becoming one of Channel 4's most reliable shows and I'll definitely be watching even if I can't always hear exactly what Clem Fandango is saying.
