A brilliant film that helped define a genre

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Blistering performances.

Entertaining characters, good jokes, a fine sense of the absurd grounded in enough reality to make it genuinely funny rather than just kooky, and inventive story lines. Casting universally excellent, boosted by enjoyable self-mocking cameos from actors playing themselves. Matt Berry is always good value, but he excels as the eponymous hero. An easy, witty watch.

British humour very evocative of the 1960's and 70's.Foolishness and throwaway lines that you sometimes don't even realize until later."Your brother ... is that the soldier?" "Yes. He came back from the Falklands with an amputated hand." "Really? That's rather odd. I would have thought he'd have left it there."Silly humour, makes you chuckle and leaves you diverted.And love Stephen Toast. All the casting is well thought out.Very worth a watch. Wish there was more of it.

This is so funny, makes you laugh out loud on so many occasions! Really recommend it to anyone. There are cameos from a lot of great actors and Mr berry is great. I love comedy that is a bit strange but this has so many facets to it, any taste should be accommodated. My favourite episode........ I cannot choose there are that many! Watch it and laugh along. It is a bit mad but there are jokes for anyone. I was in the back room whilst my wife was watching some reality rubbish on television in the other room. I was laughing that loud she came in to see what I was watching! It is heinous and so funny from start to finish. Watch this if you have a sense of humour at all. Matt berry should do more than just voice overs!!!!!

Toast of London is by far the best sit-com that UK TV has produced in the last 10 years and that includes The Office. The show follows the misadventures of Steven Toast, he has to deal with an inept agent, an unhinged Army officer Brother,an awful pair of hipsters who work at recording studio that Toast does voice over work at, a flat mate who has somewhat questionable habits and a rival actor whose wife he is having an affair with. With appearances as themselves by the likes of John Nettles (forced to turn to poaching when he has fallen on hard times), Peter Davison (present at the same mason ceremony) and Michael Ball (killed while trying to collect a gambling debt from Toast). Quite rightly Matt Berry won a BAFTA for the show (that he also co-writes for) in that Steven Toast is the latest in the long line of classic British comedy characters.
