Boldly Going Where No Welshman
Has Gone Before
If you are a bit of a Trekker, (you know, someone who watches a little too much Star Trek) then you might have caught
Gareth on BBC2's Star Trek Night in September.
Gareth's contributions were used in 3 specially made programmes which were slotted in either side of popular Star Trek episodes. Alongside the Star Trek cast and production team, our self-confessed sci-fi addict was interviewed at length on all aspects of the various Trek franchises, from the science of warp speed to getting your tongue round techno-babble.
Yes, having been a dedicated follower of Star Trek since it was first broadcast in Britain back in the 1960s, Gareth has finally achieved expert status. Having previously interviewed Partick Stewart (Jean-Luc Picard) for ITV and beaten Leonard Nimoy (Spock) in a BBC Radio 4 Star Trek quiz, there is now just one major Trek ambition left for Gareth...
To appear on the Enterprise as the first Welsh Vulcan. If Paramount are reading this: come on, you've had odder passengers and crew. Haven't you?
