Here is the details on the website it does say 3rd December
http://gold.uktv.co.uk/article/Cracker-comp-tcs-and-cs/
See what I'm not sure about is:
The page says 'winners' announced on 3rd Dec. But Bruce Dessau's shortlist is meant to be used for a public voting stage to pick the actual winners.
So is the 3rd Dec the announcement of the shortlist for public voting, or the announcement of final winners/placing? And if the latter, what became of the public voting on the shortlist?
From that page:
1.WINNER SELECTION:
A selection of the best Jokes as voted for by a comedy panel lead by critic Bruce Dessau will be put to the public vote and the top 10 best Jokes as voted for by the public will win a prize.
Which suggests that Bruce Dessau shortlists more than 10 for the public vote, and the top 10 from the voting become the winners. But if 'winners' are announced on the 3rd, when is the public vote?
If Bruce is only selecting a shortlist of 10, then all of them are winners and it isn't 'the top 10 best Jokes as voted for by the public will win a prize' but, imo, should read:
1.JD's WINNER SELECTION IF BRUCE's SHORTLIST HAS 10 ENTRIES:
A selection of the 10 best Jokes as voted for by a comedy panel lead by critic Bruce Dessau will be put to the public vote and will all win prizes according to their final position in the public vote.
And yes I know it's nitpicky: the result of pedantry, IT systems development and more.
