Star Trek links and videos that don't fit discussion of the current movie series.

Really good interview with Alexander Siddig! Alexander Siddig on being Bashir, quitting 24, and getting saddle-sore for Ridley Scott · Random Roles · The A.V. Club

So when that thing came along about enhancing me, I felt they were really trying—cynically—to make me more like Data, so that I would be more popular still, and I felt betrayed. It wasn’t part of our plan! So I just ignored it. And whenever the lines came up, I just screwed them up. It wasn’t that I didn’t deliver them, but the lines that referred to that, I just messed up. The actor has that power. At the end of the day, they have a veto, and that veto is expressed in just making the line rubbish, just losing it. So I’d say the line, because that’s my job and I’m paid to do that, but I said it in a way that hopefully it drifted off and no one really noticed it.
 
Well the central concept of 24 is that each episode of the season takes place in real time over an hour, so if suddenly an actor doesn't want to appear in the rest of the episodes, you can imagine that presents them with some difficulties.
 
Is a good pick up line something like, "I know lots of Star Trek fans! I even chat with them all the time?"
 
I was on his side until "I was Seth MacFarlane’s, um, go-to “British fag accent” guy. [Laughs.] I’m sure there’s a more politically correct way of putting it".

Well, yes, there is.
 
Ooooh, that was a game on the SNES. Never did manage to complete it and it'd probably seem pretty crap now, but good fun at the time.

I like that actors from the different shows all seem to be friends. I guess they've all met loads of times at cons now.
