Walsh also created a Pun Guide to the Fringe for this year's Festival, consisting of an animated video punning the name of almost every comedian performing in Edinburgh 2015.
The competition has previously been won by luminaries including Tim Vine, Rob Auton, Stewart Francis, Zoe Lyons and Nick Helm.
A judging panel of 10 critics drew up a shortlist of gags which were then voted on by 2000 people, who did not know which comic had said them.
This year's shortlist included the youngest entry in its history, with 12-year-old Grace the Child finishing tenth with a one-liner from her show Playground Politics.
