The shortlist for the world famous Turnip Prize has been revealed - with entries poking fun at lockdown and Covid-19.

The annual spoof award goes to someone who has "created something that they perceive to be crap art using the least amount of effort possible".

Organiser Trevor Prideaux, of The New Inn in Wedmore, Somerset, said this year's award attracted 120 entries - crossing the 100 mark for the second time in succession.

"This year we have received a record number of entries. We have ordered a second skip," he said.

The Turnip Prize pokes fun at modern art's most important award, the Turner Prize.

It began in 1999 as a response to Tracey Emin's unmade bed, which was exhibited at the Tate Gallery that year.

Winners of the competition, organised by a Somerset pub, receive an actual turnip attached to a wooden base.

The winner of this year's prize will be unveiled online on December 1.
