Tim Vine tells Edinburgh Festival Fringe's best joke

Tim Vine dusted off his joke book and cleaned up at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe when his one-liner was voted the funniest wisecrack of the festival.

The comedian, 47, saw his joke scoop almost a fifth of the votes in the competition run by comedy television channel Dave.

He won with the one-liner: “I decided to sell my Hoover… Well, it was just collecting dust.”
