A joke about dating a zookeeper has been voted the funniest of this year's Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Dave, the BAFTA-winning UKTV entertainment channel, has announced the winner of its fourteenth Dave's Funniest Joke of the Fringe award.
Each year a panel of leading comedy critics spends hours watching hundreds of shows to find the most hilarious joke. After the critics narrowed it down to their top 10 jokes, they were then voted on anonymously by 2,000 people. The winner cornered a whopping 44 percent of the vote.
Here are the Top 10, with the winning one-liner by Lorna Rose Treen at the end.
