THE TOP 50 FUNNIEST JOKES EVER TOLD... (ALLEGEDLY)

Researchers examined more than 1,000 jokes before whittling them down to a final 50 and getting 36,000 people to vote for their favorites.

Jokes ranged from the legendary one-liner about a zoo with just one dog being a 'shitzu' - to ones about wives, husbands, blondes and foreigners.

A spokesman for OnePoll, which carried out the research, said: "The majority of these jokes are clean and genuinely funny - but a lot are pretty subjective and what one person finds hilarious, someone else may not.

"Many of the jokes in the list are fairly timeless and will still be making people chuckle in thirty years or more."
