A Dundee primary school class has been dubbed the UK’s funniest with its topical joke about face masks.
Class 5B from Forthill Primary School entered the Beano’s annual competition to find Britain’s Funniest Class, and came out on top with their submission having 21.7% of the public vote.
It was: “What did the face mask say to the mouth? Let me cover for you!”
The joke was one of 10 shortlisted by a panel at the DC Thomson comic before the public decided which they found funniest.
Beano’s Mike Stirling presented the class at Forthill Primary School with the official trophy, alongside a bundle of Beano goodies including comic subscriptions for all the children.
