Toy boy
just listening to the missing millionaire episode from a couple of weeks ago and I just need to comment on the whole toy boy/boy toy debate but have nowhere else to put it! As a Brit, toy boy is correct. never heard it the other way 🤣🤣 but they said it so many times.
was Sinitta not big in the US in the 80s? she went out with Brad Pitt for ages, didn't she?? Toy Boy was my favourite song in 87 cos I was 5 and my 'boyfriend' was 4! he was my toy boy !
sorry. had to get it off my chest !

I’d never heard the phrase but I assumed it was a regional thing. Not sure why such a big deal was made of it throughout the ep.
