I'm famous part ???

Yesterday I also tweeted the pic that I posted of my fandoms colliding and John Barrowman kissing Vic Mignogna

Seems I hit a nerve there ;) 45 Likes and 14 Retweets - among them the official Star Trek Continues Twitter as well as Colin Baker himself (who played a guest part in episode 4). Consider me thudded *thud*

Wow, that's great! :D
"Two captains" sounds like a perfect title for a crossover. Just saying ;)

Oh yes, like "Five Doctors"! If only there were figures of the Star Trek Continues gang. Guess what I would do... Certainly this is a market niche.

I can't even do a proper Star Trek / Torchwood crossover as the figure sizes don't match up :( The Cantina scene we shot at the weekend, we put all the smaller figures into the background where it didn't matter much, and when Jack came through the door we were careful to not have him in any scene together with someone who isn't his size.

Did I mention that Colin Baker guest starred in episode 4? *scrolls back* Guess I did ;) He was very funny in the role. Surely not enough for you to actually want to watch it, but I can at least recommend the gag reel. It's only 6 minutes. There is a certain thing I don't want to spoil but it's very funny: https://player.vimeo.com/video/128463799?byline=0&portrait=0&autoplay=1

Thanks for the link, it was super funny! Oh that moment with Colin! You never ever completely leave Doctor Who, it just stays with you to be brought up in an unexpected moment :)

Happy you loved it! It was such a surprise when I heard that Dalek voice for the first time. I doubled over laughing. You simply don't expect it in a Star Trek setting!

The gag reel for episode 5 has also a funny scene. Scotty is supposed to repair a computer console with a tool and he gets out a sonic screwdriver instead, with sound. After the chuckles have died down, Vic (who was directing) said "Okay, again, and this time with the right tool please".

I love that they are all such geeks, and have time for some fun, even if they have to finish the episode within a week.

Did you see the Spock figure I posted the other day? He is smaller, so Star Trek / Torchwood crossovers just have become a possibility!

:D I can imagine the laugh, though.

So much potential I can see. (Why do I speak like Yoda, I don't know.)

Here's the gag reel - the screwdriver turns up around 00:37: https://player.vimeo.com/video/139671877?byline=0&portrait=0&autoplay=1

(I also really giggled about the scene that follows it)

Sorry, can't find a link for the other one. I have it downloaded though.

Apparently a Kirk is in the making next - with Spock alone it wouldn't be much of a crossover story! But at 100+ Euros that will be an expensive collection.

I wonder how Spock and Ianto would hit it off.

I love Spock's face: "yes, that may work, it's a good tool" :D

I'm sure Spock and Ianto would get on very well. Ianto is reasonable, and seems to be quite formal and distanced at first sight (we know he can be emotional and passionate, though) so initially, I think Spock would like him more than Jack if he met them both :)

In the beginning I didn't like that Spock very much, I thought he was way too young to have the gravitas for the role (and also his voice is too high) but I have really grown to love him. They all are great.

I'll make sure to have a Spock/Ianto scene then - and a jealous Jack ;)
