Card company thortful have been collecting up the "worst" Christmas Cracker jokes.

They say: "Christmas wouldn't be the same without some classic traditions - like a Christmas cracker, stuffed with a paper hat and some truly lame jokes. Yes, they might be groanworthy, but to celebrate the festive season, we've been creating an index of the best (or should that be worst?) Christmas cracker jokes."

Their visitors have been voting on the list and, at the time of writing, here's the top 20 jokes:

The company has also published a blog titled a year in cards, in which it rounds-up the last 12 months via captions that were printed on its card designs. January started with "Enjoy your last birthday as a member of the EU" with no sign of any covid jokes... but things changed in March.
