TOM UTLEY: This is the best joke the Edinburgh Fringe has to offer, then the awakened has the best joke

UTLEY: Lorna Rose Treen's pundit was like this (and, no, you shouldn't need to be concerned about any danger of wetting your pants): 'I started dating a zookeeper, but it turned out that he was a cheetah.' This year's champion loses on every count, according to my book. Yes, I can see it in a clunking way, but the mention of the zookeeper's occupation sets up the pun in the punchline. Well, perhaps I'm being unfair on Lorna Rose. I admit that I wasn't in the audience at her Edinburgh show, which received some rave reviews, but I do know that an awful lot comes from timing and delivery.
