Yup, I was hallucinating too .. Shatner holds constipation cure in his hand .. there's a thought .. it was the pantechnicon-load backing up the driveway which made me wonder what kind of message the Ad boys were thinking of?

Shatner has that certain elusive ability to cross all cultural barriers seamlessly, leaving people gasping in his wake. He really should run for President, but the office is not large enough to hold him, so why bother?

In Australia, we now have the, er, well, whatever, of seeing him in "The Practice" - lucky I've never watched it at all, so my entertainment will not be spoilt....

I've seen the adverts too. Why doesn't the silly old bastard retire? He must be 80years old by now!

He's not just practising on 'The Practise'. He's got his own show, also by that medium-talent David Kelley, called 'Boston Legal'. As usual it substitutes sexual outuendo and legal eye-candy du jour to simulate thought provocation, but wotthehell wotthehell. It's got some telegenic actors.

Them ads have been on TV here in the NW of England for ages now - Did he get in time warp and appear here first? Did Scotty nae have the poower cap'n to get him back..?

Well, if Scotty can get trapped in the teleport buffers for ages, then ANYTHING could happen to Kirk!

I assume this cereal he advertises is full of bran? Or did the marketers figure that they could save a fortune by not putting any in and just having Shatner do the ads?

I'm surprised no-one has posted a link to the adverts yet. Here they are!

Yes, it's so wonderful. There is no field in art that Shatner cannot make more fruitful with his limitless talents and unique emotive ability.
