Here is my analysis

Alice - "What did the cow say to the astronaut? Let's go to the moon"
Another cow joke. The class didn't laugh but she fell into a fit of laughter which, in turn, made the class laugh. We all forgot about the joke and just ended up laughing together. Great opening act. 6/10

Katie - "Why did the poo go in the toilet? Because it's poo"
Look. We've all matured since last time. Our comedic taste has grown exponentially. Or has it? Nope. The class still cheered and whooped. Which annoyed me. Wasn't even a good poo joke. But do what works, I guess. 3/10

Jack - "What do you call an alligator in a vest? Investigator"
This banged. Delivered it with dry, self deprecating witt. The class laughed but Jack's face stayed firm. A top class act. Always in character. He's grown so much as a comic. Really finding his feet. 7/10

Toby and Wendy - "Wendy can do a handstand" "No I can't" "Oh yeah. I'll do a handstand"
Spoiler alert. He didn't do a handstand. But we're back with our favourite double act. They didn't even tell a joke but they're so charismatic as a pair you don't care. Great stuff. 6.5/10

Emma - "What's brown and sticky? A stick...Toby told me that"
Toby has his thumbs up. Like a proud dad. Emma's grown from shy caterpillar to confident butterfly. Everyone laughed and supported her immensely. We all love an underdog. The joke was great as well. 9/10

Mikey - "I...What...Can...Can you pull a dog from the...I don't know"
Oh Mikey boy! I was really rooting for you. He bounced up as well. Rehearsing in the bathroom mirror before. Took a deep breath and then, this. We love you but stand up is not your forté. Off you pop. 1/10

Ravi - "How can you tell a dog from a tree? Check it's bark"
Is there anything this boy can't do? Comedic powerhouse. He's ready for the big time. He performs with such joy. He also clapped and cheered everyone else's joke. A stand-up comedian. A stand-up guy. Gentlemen. 9/10

Rosie - "Red and Yellow and pink and green, orange and purple and blue"
She sang the rainbow song but in a minion voice. The class absolutely burst out laughing. She really worked the crowd well. Not my taste because I hate minions. Walked off proudly after a solid set. 5.5/10

Millie - "How does the sea say hello? It waves"
Introducing Millie . A newcomer to our open mic. She's got a lot of guts coming up with the regulars here. A great joke told very well. A lot of promise and earned respect from the group. She bowed at the end. Dead chuffed. 8/10

Ben - "What do rabbits say on their birthday? Hoppy birthday"
Ben's got big second album syndrome here. Not his finest work. But its a safe space to test new material. It won't go in the Netflix special but his best friend was cracking up. Maybe we just had to be there. 4/10

Susanna - "What's the best thing to put ontop of a pizza? My tongue"
Take a bow! I didn't expect the punchline. The class erupted! She did a funny jig at the end as well which was also hilarious. This girl has got it. She's a firework waiting for the flame. Goodnight. 10/10

To say goodbye I will leave you with another motivational quote from a boy - age 6
"If you drink lots of water. You will live till you're 100"
