Here's a postbox that tells jokes

Anyone posting a letter outside BBC Broadcasting House in London today will get a surprise – when the postbox starts telling them jokes.

Comedian Hal Cruttenden has recorded a number of jokes, triggered when an envelope is pushed into the slot.

The ‘laughing postbox’ has been created by Royal Mail to promote Red Nose Day on Friday, and will be in place until March 22.

Royal Mail will also be postmarking all  UK mail to promote the telethon.
