Did you spot us (or rather our street barrel piano) in tonight's episode of Who Do You Think You Are?

Actor and TV presenter Joe Swash discovered an ancestor's musical roots in London's "Little Italy", something the Amersham Fair Organ Museum was happy to help with!

Not seen this fascinating episode yet? Catch-up on BBC iPlayer now!

It was in 1961 that the Museum's founder, Ted Reed, purchased a 47-key Marenghi: which sparked a passion for mechanical organs spanning over 60 years.

Very appropriate, then, that the collection is marking what would have been his centenary year with the acquisition of a similar Marenghi instrument!

Exciting stuff! Atop the list for summer improvements this year was the installation of a new public entranceway; today saw the conclusion of that when volunteers applied the final lettering and signage.
