Liverpool has been voted as the city with the best sense of humour in the UK in a recent study.
It's a result that likely won't come as a shock to a city renowned for being able to both crack and take a joke - and now it's been made official.
The findings come after a new survey commissioned by Comic Relief ahead of Red Nose Day.
Red Nose Day returns on Friday, March 19 and aims to unite the nation by spreading joy and humour to homes across the UK, while raising money to help people struggling now more than ever.
And Comic Relief’s study of 2,000 UK adults found Liverpudlians have the best sense of humour in the country.
The birthplace of John Bishop, Ken Dodd and Kenny Everett took the top spot in the charity’s poll to reveal the UK’s sense of humour capital.
London, which has given us the likes of Rob Beckett, Jo Brand and Michael McIntyre, came second.

But the north of England and beyond largely dominated the top five with Newcastle, Manchester and Glasgow in third, fourth and fifth respectively.
Rounding off the top 10 cities were Birmingham, Leeds, Edinburgh, Belfast and Cardiff, coming in sixth through to 10th respectively.
The study revealed three quarters of Brits, at 76%, said they have relied on humour to help them get through lockdown.
The study also found 85% of Brits rated themselves as having a good sense of humour, while more than one in 10 people claim to be the funniest person they know. 64% also reckon they are funnier than their partner.
Comic Relief co-founder, Lenny Henry, said: "We all need cheering up, so this year Red Nose Day will be a bit different. Of course we want to raise as much money as possible for people who really need it in the UK and around the world. But we also want to make you smile and bring you some laughter over the coming weeks."

As the coronavirus pandemic continues to impact people all over the world, it has never felt more important to raise smiles and money for those who are struggling more than ever.
For 35 years, Comic Relief has shown how laughter can make a difference, raising over £1.6bn to help change millions of lives, all thanks to the enormous generosity and kindness of the British public.
Money raised this year will help tackle issues such as homelessness, domestic abuse and mental health stigma, and support those impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
