Wake up to the joke of the day

Start your morning with a laugh: order a wake-up call and we'll phone you at your chosen time with a cheerful good-morning greeting and a family-friendly joke. There's a new joke every day — here's today's.

How it works

Book a wake-up call to any UK mobile or landline for the time you choose, and pick "Joke of the day" as the wake-up style. We'll call you at that time, greet you with a cheerful good morning, and tell you that morning's family-friendly joke to start your day.

Everyone called on the same date hears the same joke, and a new one plays each day, drawn from a library of more than 100 jokes that we keep adding to — so even a long run of wake-up calls keeps bringing fresh jokes. Prefer something calmer? You can also choose a spoken good-morning greeting, birdsong, a rooster, or reveille instead.
