London's alien belief

A whopping 51 per cent of people surveyed in London believe UFO's have landed - making it the only region with the highest majority - according to research conducted by Vue to mark the release of 'Independence Day: Resurgence'.

The show being blamed for their strong beliefs is American Sci-fi horror series 'The X-Files' - starring David Dauchovny and Gillian Anderson as FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully - and ran from 1993-2002.

Around 47 per cent of Brits believe aliens have human features, followed by 46 per cent who think they are telepathic and 23 per cent say they have ''massive eyes''.

They have even gone as far to say what personal possessions they would rush to save, should an alien invasion ever take over the earth and the results showed Brits are more likely to save their mobile phone than their photo albums.

And the Scottish Highlands was deemed the safest spot, while Glasgow was the least considered.
