After episodes on Star Trek II and Star Trek III, our five episode mission- which I'm calling #mysummerofstartrek- takes a change of course this week as we move to TV and to the crew of The Enterprise as captained by Jean-Luc Picard. Yep, that's right we're talking TNG as Paul, Kieran and I discuss the episode 'Q Who'. So that's Star Trek: The Next Generation, Season 2, Episode 16- an excellent episode of television where the crew of the ship encounter mega-villains the Borg. You can expect conversation about the Borg (from their debut here right up to their recent appearance in Picard series 3), talk of John de Lancie's Q, comparisons to Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica and Firefly, the allure of William T. Riker, going for a wee in Star Trek uniform and much, much more.
And where do we go from here? Well, next time around we discuss 'Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home'. But for now.... ENGAGE!
