I love how Stewart always defends Trek fans when interviewers mock us. He’s truly a gentleman.

“and I work hard on fitness. If you want to be a classical actor, as Laurence Olivier said, you have to be fit as an athlete. ”

Welcome ta’ “Tea Time wit’ Bristish Naval Dude”
Me guest today be Patrick Stewart.

BND: Patrick, now as a classicaly trained and succesful actor, aboot ta’ give us all an earful playin’ Claudius, what aboot tha’ time ye’ spent on skid row meetin’ folks like me who smelt as bad as they felt? How’d ye’ get outta tha’ gutter then?

P.S.: I was fed up with journalists constantly suggesting that I was slumming it. And the people who did it well all had a background on the stage. You can’t go around with a big belly hanging out, drinking late at night.

BND: I see. Now, indeed I once played Benedict in an all-girl version o’ “Much Ado.” Ye’ ever been in an all-girl production afore?

P.S.: Yes, you can tick that box.

BND: I see. Very good. Now, I noticed ye’ didn’t wanna shake me hand once comin’ oot here. Why’s that?

P.S.: Well, I’m afraid of dying.

BND: I see. So, ye’ think me scabbies be a life-threatenin’ skin problem then?

P.S.: You can tick that box.

BND: I see. Alright then. Now, how do ye’ plan ta’ deal wit’ this completely irrational fear o’ death that ye’ have?

P.S.: I work hard on fitness- hanging out, drinking late at night… with a big belly.

BND: I see. Well, that’s all tha’ time we have fur today’s guest, Mr. Locutus Picard. And besides, I’m sure he has ta’ be off, getting in shape fur his ever-so-lovely young lady friend.

P.S.: I can tick that box.

BND: Next up on “Tea Time” our guest chef Jamie Oliver cooks us up three light dishes…

P.S.: There are four lights!!!!!!

BND:… four light dishes. Sorry, mate. Stay tuned…

I think Stewart stopped aging a few days after his 40th birthday.

arrrrr…

Mr. Stewart knows everyone’s afterthoughts as he reads all our P.S.s on every letter an’ email we write… ‘tinks they be fur him… whar’ does he find tha’ time ta’ do such things… and play connivin’ Claudius ta’ rack up a resume wit’ Shakey-Speare baddies? Marvel!

Oh… and I have no affiliation wit’ tha’ poster known as “British Naval Dude”… well, almost none… copy machine accident…

Arrrrrr….

27: Not only will PS have to ask Trekkers to refrain from coming to the theater in uniform, DT will have to ask Doctor fans to refrain from appearing in Dalek costumes, and PS and DT will have to ask Starfleet and Daleks to refrain from phaser/death ray battles during play.

Happy birthday, Mr. Stewart!
I also vote for Best Captain Ever. (TNG may only be the second best show (very close) in my book, but that doesn’t imply anything about the captains.)
I’d also rather serve under Picard than Kirk! :-)
