Fresh - or perhaps not so fresh - from celebrating their Mercury victory, Klaxons have claimed an intention to donate their winnings to a sci-fi charity.

Whether or not the Sun has been tricked by a deft slip of Klaxon tongue - insert, cheek - remains to be seen, as apparently the band can find no science fiction based charity to give to.

But, vows guitarist Simon Taylor: ""I have stuck the cheque on my wall with Blu-Tack.

"We want to give the money to charity, but something that interests us where they struggle to get donations. Our album is devilled in sci-fi so we want something more abstract -like advances in telepathy or a new age science."

Those winnings - £20,000 if you still didn't know.
