Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDaisy Ridley made a very small guest appearance in season 1 in Vanity Project (2013). According to Matt Berry, he wanted to bring her back on the show, but couldn't get in touch with her. It later turned out that she had been cast in Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens (2015) recently, which made her unavailable. Berry remarked "We couldn't really compete with Daisy being in Star Wars". Additionally, in season 3 at the very end of Hamm on Toast (2015), Toast and Ed see an article in the newspaper regarding a completely unknown actress, Pookie Hook, with no stage or screen experience that landed a lead role in a Star Wars film. She mentions that she was a great fan of Steven Toast, and Ed suggests that Steven could give her some acting lessons to which Steven says maybe he could.

Featured review
Funny !
I'd never heard of Matt Berry until I watched What We Do in the Shadows (the series) and he steals the screen as Laszlo the vampire. I'm really getting into British comedy so I saw Toast of London on Netflix and decided to watch it. Matt is so entertaining as struggling (not in his mind) actor, Steven Toast who also happens to be quite the ladies man. Doon Mackichan is a scene stealer as his agent Jane. Other supporting characters who are really funny ; Harry Peacock as Steven's nemesis and fellow actor, Ray Purchase, Tracy Ann Oberman as Mrs Purchase, Ray's wife and Steven's sometime bedmate. My favorite character doesn't have a huge part but he cracks me up every time is Shazad Latif as Clem Fandango.
