The UK Pun Championships!
Union JACK Radio was live from the UK Pun Championships at the Leicester Comedy Festival!
Our very own Lucy Leeds was ringside along with pun-dit and former champ Rob Thomas.
And the brilliant stand up comedian Jason Byrne hosted the shindig as eight punners vied for the Pun Champion crown.
Congratulations to this year's winner Adele Cliff who took the gong home!
