I don't know why they announce a winner of best Fringe joke. They are always awful and must put folk off going knowing the others are going to be worse. Publicity is meant to attract, not repel.

Wow !  I remember that joke from when I was in junior school ...... 70 years ago !

[bookbinder]

Could do better.

Apparently when he was interviewed the winner said he needed the win because had lost his job marking exam papers and he didn't inderstand why because he always gave 110%.  To me, that's funnier than the winner.

If they're the best, are they chosen by adults ?

[Canary42]

A panel of comedy critics attend hundreds of shows, listening out for the best jokes before drawing up a shortlist of 10 favourites.

The jokes are then voted on anonymously by 2,000 members of the public who are asked to select their top three.

 

No details on their ages.
