TURNS out it's true: humour CAN be a funny one.
If you're wondering who said that, wonder no more: it was Jacob Weitering on the season three finale of Summer Sessions.
Returning for the first time since year one, Weitering puts an end to the heinous rumours from Messrs Docherty and McGovern that the co-vice captain is funny.
