This year we’re feeling particularly festive and can’t wait to share Christmas memories-a-plenty through our favourite month of the year.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Christmas 2023<\/strong>, Toyah guests on BBC One’s The Great British Sewing Bee<\/em> on 21st December, alongside actor and comedian Kerry Godliman, comedian and writer Jessica Knappett and actor Hammed Animashaun.

Toyah took part in a number of festive sewing challenges, creating a variety of outfits for Christmas! Toyah also reminisced with one of the show’s hosts, Esme Young, about Love Is The Law<\/em> and Princess Diana. It was Esme’s fashion house, Swanky Modes, who concepted and designed Toyah’s iconic and memorable imagery for the 1983 album, Love Is The Law<\/em>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

There was a tonne of pre-broadcast press for The Great British Sewing Bee<\/em>, and the programme was a ratings hit for the build-up week to Christmas. Post-airing there was also an abundance of press – print and digital, reporting on Toyah winning the show!
