      don't take off leaves because they're dark green unless they're dark green and crispy or soggy...

            That looks grey to me so a guess would be botrytis. Are they in a well ventilated spot?

              looks as though it has been frosted to me. Is that possible?

                I was thinking frost or scorch. Or possibly wind burn. Definitely environmental rather than disease IMHO

                  dr hessayon seems to think it's sun scald, where the leaves go papery...me, I have no idea, except the rest of the plant looks fine, so wot she said ^

                    I can't tell if the leaves are white/grey, or if that's the camera's flash ...? I can't see any yellowing spots at all, where are they?

                      What size pot is it in SD? It's hard to tell from the photograph.

                        sorry. the leaves are white,some have spots but that one has the whole leaf that is white, its not the flash and i have just potted them up into a bigger pot (before this happened). i dont normally have any problems with my tomoto plants, should i remove the leaves or leave them on? they are quite papery. thanks

                          Looks like wind burn to me - put in a too exposed place before it was hardened off properly

                            I'd take off the affected leaves and dispose of them away from your plants. I.e. do not put them in a bucket close to your plants
