Donald Trump tried to trademark the phrase, but Sir Alan has different plans for his phrase "You're Fired!" now that the BBC2 series has come to an end.

Due out in November, the businessman from Hackney, has announced that fans of the show or Sir Alan will be able to buy an animatronic version of his face just in time for Christmas.

Called the "Amsface" and costing £39, the rubber latex look a like promises to move and speak just like Sir Alan.

It also has 20 famous catchphrases pre-loaded and even a motion-sensitive option to scare people when they get near.

Of course, the catchphase "YOU'RE FIRED!" offers something special; a pop-out pointing hand just like the TV show.
