Myra DuBois: 'Kate Winslet's boobs in Titanic always make me chuckle'
The funniest standup I’ve ever seen …
When an inebriated Antony Costa from Blue urinated on a cash machine outside a post office near Covent Garden. He was stood up for that, and I did laugh. The cash machine is no longer there but I believe that’s unrelated to the aforementioned piddling.
The funniest sketch I’ve ever seen …
The one of Kate Winslet’s boobs in Titanic always makes me chuckle because I don’t know who it is he’s sketching but it looks naff all like Kate Winslet.
The funniest book I’ve ever read …
The diaries of Edwina Currie make for a good read.
The funniest TV show I’ve ever seen …
The disappointment on display on the Antiques Roadshow never fails to raise a smile, and I imagine I’m not alone when I say that.

The funniest item of clothing I’ve ever owned …
I used to have a Chanel (-inspired) two-piece suit and the fabric boasted a print featuring Bassetts Liquorice Allsorts, and I used to enjoy standing in front of people and declaring: “You know me, I’ll wear ALL SORTS,” to everyone’s amusement, and it never got old.
The funniest meal I’ve ever eaten …
For some reason whenever I see the words “lamb shank” on a menu I burst out laughing.
The funniest dream I’ve ever had …
Do you know, last night I dreamed I was on Coronation Street! I mention it not because it’s funny but because Corrie’s casting directors might read this.
The funniest number …
As a woman with a past life as a bingo caller I can tell you that it is and always will be “69”.
The funniest joke I’ve ever heard ...
My friend Ginny Lemon told this one earlier today: “I shan’t be doing any jokes about French eggs. An oeuf is an oeuf.”
