Matt Berry briefly resurrects Toast Of London for some Margaret Thatcher-themed phone sex
Aux Features great job internet
Though there is currently no shortage of Matt Berry content on television these days, it’s been years since fans of the cult favorite Toast Of London have gotten a fresh dose of Steven Toast’s uniquely pathetic brand of horniness. Thankfully, these trying times have given the sonorous-voiced comedian the opportunity to do a little home recording and give us a glimpse into Toast’s phone sex habits with his on-again, off-again adulteress, Mrs. Purchase (Tracy Ann Oberman).
“Just a little something I wrote with Arthur tailored for times like these,” Berry wrote on Twitter, referring to Arthur Mathews, co-creator and co-writer of Toast Of London. The clip is classic Toast, riddled with esoteric references to British actors of stage and screen, unquestionably made-up slang for sexual arousal, and a brief appearance from an irate Ray “Bloody” Purchase. All that’s missing is a little Clem Fandango and a spontaneous musical number.
All three seasons of Toast Of London are currently available on Netflix; a fourth season was ordered by the BBC back in 2017, though there’s no sign that anything is in production. Hopefully, more clips like this will continue to be released to satiate viewers’ appetites. After all, Toast could certainly use the work.

I do want to watch year of the Rabbit from him, though I’m not sure I can figure out a way to do so, as I don’t have IFC.
Eh…it has its moments, but it isn’t really very good. Wish he’d do more seasons of “Toast.” Ooh, pardon — more series of “Toast!”
Leslie and Ben role-playing as Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan was hotter and also more disturbing
Ben Wyatt rocking a Steven Toast mustache would be excellent.
Was that Bob Mortimer making a guest appearance in the shower at the beginning?
Definitely sounds like him.
One day non-Brits will discover Bob.
We can only hope.
That does sound specifically like him. Would only make sense as Matt appeared as the train guy the other week
Thanks for that – just checked it out. The ultimate in DIY comedy! For those who still haven’t seen it, here’s a compilation (not including Matt Berry – but you can find his contribution elsewhere.)
I believe they’re drinking buddies, ever since they worked together on House of Fools.
I just wish Mrs P’s sex play had featured Benedict Cumberbatch.“Who?”
