Research has claimed that men are funnier than women.

They looked at the results of various studies in which people were asked to rate men and women's humour - without knowing their sex first.

Researchers found that 63 percent of men were funnier than the average woman.

The study looked at normal people rather than professional comedians, but Marina Bye, one-half of the comedy duo Siblings, says the study feels "unnecessary".

She says with comedy that's the last thing you want.

She worries it could put women off getting into comedy.
