Toyah & Robert’s Sunday Lunch series continues to be phenomenally successful, but overall Toyah’s You Tube channel is performing amazingly in itself. In the past two years the channel has gained 149K followers and each Sunday Lunch video receives hundreds of thousands of views each week. Although as the trilogy of retrospective Sunday Lunch collections from the beginning of the year testified, some of these cover clips have been viewed in their many millions!

Toyah At Home, Burning Question and sporadic other content such as Toyah promo videos or announcements all attract big audiences, with Sunday Lunch the cherry on top of the icing on the Toyah & Robert cake! Sunday Lunch also hits the You Tube Top 10 Trending For Music almost every week, which is, frankly, an amazing reach. (Image © Toyah Willcox)
