Looking at the 15 runners-up, I can see y it won- they're all either un-funny or bit politically-incorrect to win £25k (£25k & only 150 jokes!), like this one, which is, to me, the funniest of the rest;

A woman standing nude in front of the mirror says to her husband, ‘I look horrible, fat and ugly. Pay me a compliment.’ And the husband replies ‘Well, your eyesight is spot on.’
LOL at that joke!

I couldn't help but wonder whether the reason the "BA" joke won was because it's initially read as a slight dig against BA from Virgin Radio?

Or am I reading too much into it?

(It's not paranoia if they're really after you ;-))
