Sorry, that was my bad. I confused it with the one below, realised, deleted the minus points but forgot to change the score back.

When I was young I was bought a Stylophone, promoted on TV by our old friend Rolf Harris.

On the instructions cassette (!) it encouraged you to plug it into an amp, whereupon it would supposedly sound just like the organ  on Telstar. Suffice to say it didn't - much tinnier and prone to random outbreaks of static (which it was with or without being plugged in for that matter).
