Tomatoes, inside and outside

So at present we have a whole load of tomato plants. 3 inside the greenhouse, and 9 outside. But the current heat wave we have is playing havoc with the inside ones. The greenhouse is regularly hitting temperatures of 40°C, and it seems that the humid conditions in there are causing a problems with a blight or mildew. The leaves are looking a little yellow and mottled.
But whilst the foliage shows a bit of an issue, the fruits seem to be OK.

The outside plants however are loving the heat.
(That's beetroot in the front there).

Seems that we have the making of a decent salad.
