The quip by Canterbury funnyman Mark Simmons took the acclaim at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe - which finishes on Bank Holiday Monday.

The performer, who appeared as a panellist on the long-running BBC satire show Mock The Week, saw two of his jokes named in the top 15 of the U&Dave’s Funniest Joke of the Fringe Festival competition

His winning gag was a simple one-liner: “I was going to sail around the globe in the world’s smallest ship but I bottled it.”
