Season 3:
Live on chat show Lorraine Toast tells a tale that could not only topple the US Government but also destroy the entire world. Meanwhile, he's got an outdoor production of Macbeth to prepare for.
Toast's romance with a weather girl is thrown into jeopardy when he and Ed are asked to judge an international beauty contest.
Toast experiences the charisma of Mad Men star Jon Hamm, and Toast and his brother Blair visit their dying father - guest Brian Blessed - in his castle to find out who will inherit the Toast fortune.
With the promise of a potential role in Kevin Spacey's House of Cards, Toast takes part in a Royal Variety Performance hosted by Bob Monkhouse.
Toast is cast in a West End play along with legendary actor and drinker Ormond Sacker, who has just come out of rehab.
When Toast begs Jane to get him in at the Globe Theatre, he's less than impressed with the director, Daz Klondyke, who's rumoured to be the hottest thing in UK theatre. However when he's cast in Klondyke's all-dog version of Twelfth Night, it's not long before Toast gets his fingers burnt as he tries to become a real actor.
