Comedian Rob Auton has won an award for the funniest joke of the Edinburgh Fringe.
He won for the joke: "I heard a rumour that Cadbury is bringing out an oriental chocolate bar. Could be a Chinese Wispa."
Auton, 30, from York, was given the prize by digital TV channel Dave, whose panel put a selection of their favourites to a public vote.
The comic, who recently quit his job selling paintbrushes to perform full time, said: "I am honoured to receive this award and just pleased that a joke that tackles the serious issue of the invention of a new chocolate bar can be laughed at by the people of Britain."
The judges sat through hours of material before nominating their favourite three gags for the shortlist.
The rest of the top 10 were:
Alex Horne: "I used to work in a shoe-recycling shop. It was sole-destroying."
Alfie Moore: "I'm in a same-sex marriage... the sex is always the same."
Tim Vine: "My friend told me he was going to a fancy dress party as an Italian island. I said to him: 'Don't be Sicily'."
Gary Delaney: "I can give you the cause of anaphylactic shock in a nutshell."
Phil Wang: "The Pope is a lot like Doctor Who. He never dies, just keeps being replaced by white men."
Marcus Brigstocke: "You know you are fat when you hug a child and it gets lost."
Liam Williams: "The universe implodes. No matter."
Bobby Mair: "I was adopted at birth and have never met my mum. That makes it very difficult to enjoy any lapdance."
Chris Coltrane: "The good thing about lending someone your time machine is that you basically get it back immediately."
