I had 3 different varieties up today - so not just a fluke
Bretby - don't know whether the nursery goes back to when Lord Canaervon lived at Bretby Hall. I will try and do a bit of research and give you more of an answer. It was quite a major nusery that as said supplied the UK in toms. Little history there!
You have done well and obviously have a little microclimate going on

mine have all been in the conservatory for weeks which is a sort of halfway house, no heating and no double glazing, just faces south. They will go in the gh in a couple of weeks..

Do you have a min max thermometer in the GH? If you do, what's the lowest they've been through.
I remember posting and wondering about this last year, when I had some hardy self seeded toms germinating in the GH. None this year though, it's been too cold I reckon.
Nah - no max min here; just a froggie one from Wilko that shows when it gets too hot in the summer [you can see him from the kitchen window so when it gets beyond a certain amount I pop out and give everything a good hose down].
I always germinate mine in the airing cupboard, but earlier in the year I found a clump of tiny seedlings in the soil(outside) that I believe had germinated from a tomato that had been chucked in there last year. I may try outdoor germination next year as an experiment
