The world’s best dad joke has been revealed after more than 2,700 gags were submitted in Aldi’s annual competition.

In celebration of Father’s Day, the supermarket invited people to submit their funniest dad jokes, with standup comedian Mark Watson enlisted to judge the best entry.

After reviewing all of the submissions, Watson chose an entry submitted by a father-of-two named Austin May, as the winner.

Mr May’s joke went as follows: “I once hired a limo but when it arrived, the guy driving it walked off!

“I said ‘Excuse me? Are you not going to drive me?’

“The guy told me that the price didn’t include a driver…… so I’d spent £400 on a limo and have nothing to chauffeur it!”
