TV review: Toast Of Tinseltown, Episode 3, The Scorecard

I think Toast Of Tinseltown is my favourite comedy on television at the moment.

Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 18th January 2022

Toast Of Tinseltown review

Toast is hot stuff - with more laughs in 30 minutes than in most sitcom series.

Christopher Stevens, Daily Mail, 5th January 2022

Toast Of Tinseltown review

Soho's favourite thespian is back.

Steven Toast: One of the best comic creations of the last 10 years

The Fellini of failure's return in BBC sitcom Toast Of Tinseltown is a long-awaited chance to catch up with a televisual joy - who has more in common with most of us than we'd like to admit.

James Donaghy, The Guardian, 5th January 2022

TV review: Toast Of Tinseltown, BBC Two

The script is superb and and the visual gags are the icing on the cake, from the 1970s titles (Columbo 1974?) to the gaggle of ancient in-joke celebs in the "Colonial Club" including David Hockney, George Melly and Tom Baker in his Doctor Who iteration.

Toast Of Tinseltown review

With no great change from the Channel 4 series, Toast Of Tinseltown might not win this bonkers, larger-than-life creation many more fans beyond its original devoted, but cult-sized fanbase. Nonetheless, it's good to see mainstream TV still has space for this thick-skinned self-centred oddball.

Steve Bennett, Chortle, 4th January 2022

Toast Of Tinseltown review

Matt Berry's idiotic actor returns - and is just as weird as ever.

Isobel Lewis, The Independent, 4th January 2022

Toast Of Tinseltown, BBC2, review

Matt Berry's gloriously surreal cult comedy goes to Hollywood.

Gerard Gilbert, i Newspaper, 4th January 2022

Toast Of Tinseltown review

Knowingly naff and stuffed with surreal one-liners, this riotously absurd cult comedy sees Britain's worst actor arrive in Hollywood.

Anita Singh, The Telegraph, 4th January 2022

Matt Berry on Toast Of Tinseltown

'When other actors lose their temper, I'm mentally taking notes'.

James Rampton, i Newspaper, 30th December 2021
