The Top 10 funniest jokes from the Fringe Festival

The Edinburgh Fringe festival is the place to go to see your faverouite comedians and upcoming stand ups.Every year there is a contest for the best jokes and here is the top 10 for you.The first one which is the winner might take some time to understand it took me two days literally when i was in bed one night still didnt find it hilarious but judge for your self:

1) Dan Antopolski – "Hedgehogs - why can't they just share the hedge?"

2) Paddy Lennox – "I was watching the London Marathon and saw one runner dressed as a chicken and another runner dressed as an egg. I thought: 'This could be interesting.'"

3) Sarah Millican – "I had my boobs measured and bought a new bra. Now I call them Joe Cocker and Jennifer Warnes because they're up where they belong."

4) Zoe Lyons – "I went on a girl's night out recently. The invitation said 'dress to kill.' I went as Rose West."

5) Jack Whitehall - "I'm sure wherever my dad is, he's looking down on us. He's not dead. Just very condescending."

6) Adam Hills – "Going to Starbucks for coffee is like going to prison for sex. You know you're going to get it, but it's going to be rough."

7) Marcus Brigstocke – "To the people who've got iPhones: you just bought one, you didn't invent it!"

8) Rhod Gilbert – "A spa hotel? It's like a normal hotel, only in reception there's a picture of a pebble".

9) Dan Antopolski – "I've been reading the news about there being a civil war in Madagascar. Well, I've seen it six times and there isn't."

10) Simon Brodkin (as Lee Nelson) – "I started so many fights at my school - I had that attention-deficit disorder. So I didn't finish a lot of them."

Funny? You decide my personal winner out of this list would have been NO. 8 from the legendary Rhod Gilbert and in second for me NO. 7 Marcus Brigstocke but thats my opinion!

Comedian Profile: Lee Mack

Lee Mack star of  Not Going Out and team captain on my favourite quiz-com Would I Lie To You? I know that visitors to the blog are fans of Lee and its easy to see why with his razor sharp wit and superb delivery of one liners. Mack first came to prominence on winning So You Think You're Funny at the 1995 Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Since then Mack has played the part of Graham, the security guard in the original radio version of The Mighty Boosh and had his own BBC Radio 2 show "The Lee Mack show" His first sitcom Not Going Out for BBC One with Tim Vine premièred on 6 October 2006. The show has since returned for a second series (September 2007) and third series (January 2009). It has won a Rose d'Or and RTS Award ans will be back for a fourth series sometime this year. He is a stellar team captain on the BBC One panel show Would I Lie To You? and always gets into a spat with David Mitchell about his posh background!If you havent heard of him heres a little clip for you to view the legend that is Mr Lee Mack....(VERY STRONG LANGUAGE!)

End of an Era

Tonight sees the Tenth Doctor regenerate into the Eleventh and everyone will be wondering how its all going to end. Ive had my own theories most of them wrong but for some reason i dont think the Doctors regeneration will be like the others i think something different will happen! Also the four knocks wil "break your heart" according to David Tennant so the knocks arnet the Timelords. Whatever happens David Tennant will leave the show tonight and later this year we can find out what our new Doctor will be like. All theres left to say is "Thanks David for making Doctor Who the best programme on television!" He will be missed by all. (except Matt Smith probibly!)
