It's an OK joke, but I don't think it's the funniest one on the list. I have a feeling it gets bonus points for being an in-joke of British slang. People everywhere love jokes that they get but leave others puzzled. Personally, I prefer "My partner told me that she’d never seen the film Gaslight. I told her that she definitely had." Which probably betrays my own preference for an in-joke. Same with "I've been taking salsa lessons for months, but I just don't feel like I'm progressing. It's just one step forward... two steps back." I'm pretty sure that the funniest moments at Fringe weren't one-liners at all. But it's a lot harder to put them in a contest.
