A joke about Amy Winehouse has been declared the funniest joke at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe by TV channel Dave, even though it clearly isn't, after receiving 12% of a public vote. Zoe Lyons' award-winning joke goes thus: "I can't believe Amy Winehouse self-harms. She's so irritating she must be able to find someone to do it for her".
Lyons said: "I am absolutely delighted to have won the award. I know self-harming is not funny but it's just a joke, so I'm not going to beat myself up about it".
I actually think her quote is funnier than the gag. Though that's not saying much.
