    Everyone loves a good chuckle, which is why events like the Edinburgh Fringe Festival keep going from strength to strength.

    It was another stellar turnout this year, some of comedy’s biggest names taking to the stage to deliver the goods. That being said, the list of winners is littered with many comedians you probably haven’t heard of.

    The best jokes were picked by a panel of 10 people, with the winners decided via a vote of around 2 000 others.

    Over to the BBC for that list then:

    • “My dad has suggested that I register for a donor card. He’s a man after my own heart” – Masai Graham
    • “Why is it old people say “there’s no place like home”, yet when you put them in one…” – Stuart Mitchell
    • “I’ve been happily married for four years – out of a total of 10” – Mark Watson
    • “Apparently 1 in 3 Britons are conceived in an IKEA bed which is mad because those places are really well lit” – Mark Smith
    • “I went to a pub quiz in Liverpool, had a few drinks so wasn’t much use. Just for a laugh I wrote The Beatles or Steven Gerrard for every answer… came second” – Will Duggan
    • “Brexit is a terrible name, sounds like cereal you eat when you are constipated” – Tiff Stevenson
    • “I often confuse Americans and Canadians. By using long words” – Gary Delaney
    • “Why is Henry’s wife covered in tooth marks? Because he’s Tudor” – Adele Cliff
    • “Don’t you hate it when people assume you’re rich because you sound posh and went to private school and have loads of money?” – Annie McGrath
    • “Is it possible to mistake schizophrenia for telepathy, I hear you ask” – Jordan Brookes
    • “Hillary Clinton has shown that any woman can be President, as long as your husband did it first” – Michelle Wolf
    • “I spotted a Marmite van on the motorway. It was heading yeastbound” – Roger Swift
    • “Back in the day, Instagram just meant a really efficient drug dealer” – Arthur Smith
    • “I’ll tell you what’s unnatural in the eyes of God. Contact lenses” – Zoe Lyons
    • “Elton John hates ordering Chinese food. Soya seems to be the hardest word” –Phil Nicol

    For a point of comparison HERE’S last year’s list, a chap called Darren Walsh taking away to honours.
