Adorable alien ET could become a member of your family this Christmas.

The electronic version of the extra terrestrial, whose wrinkly features and heart of gold captured the hearts of a generation, has come to Britain in toy form thanks to Harrogate importers Tiger Electronics.

Like the original star of the movie and of the current BT ads, Interactive ET has a moving neck, eyes, mouth and a glowing finger and heart and is sensitive thanks to special sensors in his hands, head, chest and body.

ET should be in most toy stores in December.
