A pun about pasta has won the award for the funniest joke of this year’s Edinburgh Fringe.
Comic Masai Graham was voted the winner with the joke: “I tried to steal spaghetti from the shop, but the female guard saw me and I couldn’t get pasta.”
The Dave’s Funniest Joke of the Fringe award, which was voted for by members of the public, returned for the first time since 2019.
Graham also won the accolade in 2016 with the joke: “My dad suggested I register for a donor card – he’s a man after my own heart.”
The comedian said: “It’s great to see the Edinburgh Fringe Festival back up and running again, it’s my spiritual home.
“I was so delighted to find out I’d won the Dave’s Funniest Joke of the Fringe award for a second time – I thought: ‘This is getting pasta joke’.”
Comedy critics attended hundreds of shows across the Edinburgh Festival Fringe to create a shortlist which was voted on by 2,000 members of the public, who were not told the names of the comedians in the running.
Previous winners of the award include Ken Chang, Olaf Falafel, Tim Vine, Rob Auton, Stewart Francis, Zoe Lyons and Nick Helm.

Dave channel director Cherie Cunningham said: “What a pleasure to be back in Edinburgh. This is Dave’s first Joke of the Fringe in three years and the quality of submissions has been incredibly strong.
“It’s a fantastic top 10 full of newcomers and comedy veterans, and it’s a delight to crown Masai Graham as winner once more.”
