It's OK to be late with a time-travel announcement! 4laughs said so...

Congrats to James Lock for winning it, your pitch was indeed funny

but, Jimmy, wouldn't it be better to send the cheque back and we'll pretend they haven't announced it yet because it was more fun to be bitching about them not announcing it than you having £250???

just a thought mind...

Well done, mate!

I was gonna travel back and steal the winning entry but I lost the keys to my delorian.

Did you try a wire coat hanger?

Yeah but it gave me an electric shock and jumped my sandwich forward in time so that by the time I got to it the bread had gone soggy.

This is why I buy my sandwiches from Boots. The plastic packaging keeps it sealed, even when traveling through wormholes. And you can get crisps and a drink too.

Yes, great effort there, well done to the victor.

There were some fun ones on the shortlist they showed in the blog too, particularly the one about the 18-30 club holiday being confused for the 1830s, and the one with the group of tourists who think they're going back to the 1980s, but in fact they just end up in present-day Germany.

Some nice ideas there. I think mine was something to do with a device to help you re-record an answerphone message, should you fluff one terribly, as many people do... Well it made me laugh, which I suppose is half the battle.

Yes well done to the winner, but hasn't he died of old age?

Or as Missyme25 would say, 'I'll see you Jimmy'
