The funniest joke at Edinburgh Fringe has been named

HAYSIE · August 19

A one-liner joke about a sailing ship has been named the funniest at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

Comedian Mark Simmons, who got into comedy more than a decade ago after his friend convinced him to do an open mic night, was chosen as the winner of the annual competition hosted by television channel U&Dave.

In his winning gag, Simmons said: “I was going to sail around the globe in the world’s smallest ship, but I bottled it.”

Probably voted best because it was a 1 Liner.

Final chance to see 73-year-old steam engine passing through south east London

Well the top 15 isn't exactly comedy gold, Number 11 probably the best....... “I’m an extremely emotionally needy non-binary person: my pronouns are ‘there there’.”

That's a wonderfully iconic steam locomotive, which used to operate on the GWR, & my Dad drove it on many occasions when it was working the various routes out of Paddington.

Surely the best route out of Paddington is the marmalade line through the dark tunnel. Take that Edinburgh Fringe.
