A comedian has said "it's bonkers" to have scooped the top prize for the cheesiest joke of the year at his first Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
Fil Milton runs the Make The Ferret Mad Again comedy nights at The Ferret in Preston, Lancashire.
He said he has been doing stand-up for four years after being inspired by Mark Simmons' one-liners at the Fringe in 2021.
Milton's winning joke was: "My brother convinced me to go halves on a used funeral car - I can't believe I was so easily co-hearsed."
Milton said the "easy bit" about comedy was "standing in front of people" but the hard part was "writing good material".
