- Here's the great William Shatner aka Captain James T Kirk from Star Trek having the This is your Life Experience on Thames TV 27 December 1989. Alas the only Trekkie from the original series who I recognise and I am just a fan of the original shows not an expert is the one and only late great Leonard Nimoy Mr Spock.

Nimoy was such a highlight of this. Those two men are magical :)
Thank you for posting this. It was wonderful to watch. Mr. Shatner seemed to really enjoy the memories. Since this program, Mr Shatner has been many places, done more things, & has given us, his fans countless hours of entertainment, and like the Energiser battery he has much more to give. I hope it never ends.
Yes. Shat has done all that. Benny Hill also gives tons of great moments on video.
@@bennyhillconsideredfunnier3356 Benny Hill was great, but what does that have to do with anything? LOL
Thanks for posting this ! ! I really enjoyed it !
He is SO gorgeous!
Really surprised they left out all the great work he did on the Twilight Zone and the Outer Limits.
Exactly
He was in a lot of Westerns too. Maybe there wasn't enough time to squeeze everything in 🤔
Fell in love with William Shatner in 1966 -- and he's still sexy today at age 88 - LOVE HIM
Me too!
I’ll update this for you: I also fell in love with William Shatner in 1966 and as of March 22, 1921 at 90 years old, he’s still sexy and amazing and intelligent! An absolute treasure!
Shatner and Nimoy interacting was so good. Put a smile on my face.
A life filled with memories and I life under the lens of FANS of his characters WONDERFUL IS THE VIEW from afar
What I found interesting was the introductory sequence was taped at Universal Studios when Star Trek was always a Paramount Studios property.
Also, using that music was strange since even in 1989, it was strongly associated with TNG.
I'm giving this a like for the ape practical effects alone prior to even seeing William Shatner in the video.
Great stuff , to see
Funny of all the guests Shatner seemed most excited about Leonard Nimoy
such great chemistry..
It's because Leonard Nimoy is awesome.
They really were friends.
shouldn't have left out the Twilight Zone episodes.
William Shstner is the very very B E S T !!
12:03 raw acting talent!
Interesting to hear wife #2 speak
Blooming heck I don't remember this!
They couldn't do this now because it would be considered some form of harassment
~lol~SHATNER!! "I . . lived my life . . one day . . attatime" . . .
i think.... you got that...spot....on
Jeez, Aspel’s really phoning it in!
He speaks like Kevin Pollak
1:30 the actual REAL 'Orca' from Jaws which Universal apparently scrapped! :(
9:50 Melanie looks so much like her father. Remarkable.
What was his first comments,the show you English stole from us,yes,and we did a good job,unlike red dwarf you stole from us that flopped lol,even i could have told you that would fail.could have saved them a bundle,wanna hire me?
No family apart from his children .. ?
Uses TNG music lol
it's so funny it's stupid
How absolutely annoying they keep using next gen theme song rather than the TOS one, that's seriously cringe worthy!
ST 5, worst Trek movie ever...
Really uncomfortable moment when Adrian Zhmed comes out..Shatner holds him by the waist too long...and Zhmed pushed his hands off of him. Weird.
You're a dolt.
The captain just set the record today as the oldest person to enter space
He is the Captain. Kirk Great guy then, and still now. Bill Shatner will always be the James Tiberius Kirk of the SSE
He will always be Captain Kirk!
Just watching all the films through again. Fantastic! He's a clever, clever man.
He will always be Kirk - no matter how many other people they cast in the role . No offence to Chris Pine - he's great - but he's not Kirk.
Agreed, Shatner may be the narcissist that many say but he will always be Capt. Kirk and beloved for that.
Chris Pine makes an excellent young Kirk but you can't beat an original!
I loved him as Denny Craine on Boston Legal. He was wonderful.
Kirk, William Shatner is the only one I've ever seen. Never watched the newer series they've had or the movies.
@Rex makepeace HOOAH!
15:34 RIP Leonard Nimoy.
For sure. Bless.
And De too. He worked in a lot of the TV westerns of the day, always playing a baddie!
The Universe would not be right without Bill Shatner and/or Jim Kirk! His (Shatner's) early work on the Twilight Zone, Outer Limits and films like Brothers Kamazarov and Judgement at Nuremberg were equally great, he does somehow stand out, even in a smaller role. He had great quality of diction and learned his trade on the stage in Shakespere in Stratford, Ontario. That Shatner voice is so distinctive.
I would give my right teeth to have seen him on Broadway in The World of Suzie Wong.
He is special, as is Nimoy. Jews are a special people and a blessing to the world from God. They have done so much for the world, including the world of entertainment.
I’ve seen a clip of The World of Susie Wong when they appeared on the Ed Sullivan show. Would LOVE so much to see the whole play.
I love this show . I love William shatter.
Aww I miss Leonard and Bill's interactions. Loved watching them joking around. Thanks for sharing.
Yes, Leonard was sure a great actor!
This is your life seemed to omit the parts Bill Shatner played for Rod Serling's Twilight Zone. Which was way before Star Trek.
They probably didn't have anyone available. They always have someone from a time period mentioned to greet the person
Yes. I remember Bill on Twilight Zone (TOS....just like Star Trek) He was a wonderful actor even at the start of his career.
And also in episodes of Alfred Hitchcock Presents and Boris Karloff's Thriller amongst many others.
They omitted nearly his entire TV career both pre and post original Trek. Glad they mentioned The Andersonville Trial at least.
That twilight Zone episode was the Shat!
can't beat the Shat.
I love the guy.
LOL!
Hm, perilously close to another word, but not in the past tense! :-)
@@DokktorDeth well in the UK they do actually use that as the past tense for that word , as in : he shat his pants ... haha ... they have a way with words over there
SO CHARMING AND HANDSOME! GREAT DAD TOO. HE HAS A THUMBS UP WITH ME :>)
Love this so much,.william Shatner is a great actor and seemd to be really loved by all his family and peers, not many people from montreal were so succesful, so great he did so well.😀
It is genuinely sweet when Shatner doesn't realize that Julie Harris was on videotape.
Yeah, he thought she was live. Really cool!!
They need a whole new tome as 30 years later and the Shat man is still going strong !
I remember as a kid in 1969, my Dad would sit and watch Star Trek reruns that would always come on just before supper time at 6:00pm in the evening. My Mom always tried to make sure supper would be ready right after Star Trek. She wasn't a fan of the show and at that time, I would come in from outside playing getting ready to eat as I would sit next to my Dad always asking questions about what just happened on the show or why did this or that happened. He didn't want to be interrupt so he would always tell me to go and play in my room until supper time was ready. I didn't know anything about the show and tried to get myself into it but couldn't. Now that I am a whole lot older, I have seen every episodes of the original Star Trek over and over again.
His grandson wearing that little uniform was the perfect ending. That kid has style! 🖖
missed out his two Columbo appearances,also,he was the 'Big Giant Head' in '3rd rock from the sun' plus he was in the big bang theory a lot.
They missed his two appearances on "The Twilight Zone" in his pre-Kirk days. :-(
Yea I remember watching this and me and my family said that as well
The host does speed though his reading. He reads without any feeling.
Shatner did enjoy himself. He has a big smile throughout the whole thing. Amazing that Nimoy was there. He looked great!!!!
They did a great job getting all of those clips together and the video of people who couldn't be there.
That's Michael Aspel, known to us Brits in the 60s, 70s and 80s...I always thought he was such a stiff, his interview show was even worse than this showing no connection to his guests whatsoever. Well observed.
and now at age 90 he will boldly go where no 90 year old has gone before...Space!
I saw every episode of star Trek and I still watch it these days my favourite
I too loved the original series , William Shatner was awesome.
Its unfortunate that they couldn't make up before Nimoy died. Bless.
Oh dear, as lovable as he seems, not one co-star from Star Trek apart from his old mate Len. That tells a tale! He's still a legend though. Gotta love The Shat.
If you had to have one of the crew turn up you'd want it to be Leonard.
There was another hilarious part on "AIRPLANE 2" where Shatner appears on what seems to be a monitor on a console, and the operator says "Sir, I think you'd better get down here right away." Shatner replies "Ok", then simply opens a hidden door and walks in :D
mistofoles unforgettable scene...also the later bit he does when he's assessing the situation from various people is the most hilarious thing I've ever seen
"Why the hell aren't I notified about these things?" ua-cam.com/video/p2P1AcbZ4-E/v-deo.html
Yes, that's the funniest scene in the entire film LOL
And don't forget the end teaser for Airplane 3 (there's still time)! LoL
When you listen to the bicycle story the genuine laughter coming from Bill is contagious and so nice to hear. People in the comments need to stop the hate. And no one mentions the mad professor skit? So funny! Just imagine a teen Bill Shatner performing this to children!!
William Shatner Is An Awesome Man!!👍👍👍 Greetings from Helsinki, Finland 🇫🇮🇺🇸🇫🇮🇺🇸
William Shatner is the man!!
Nimoy was the life of the party on this show.
A true SuperStar, just like Nimoy and Kelly!!!
16:51 Bill's reaction, the best reaction ever, LOL
Had to be the 80’s. That actor from TJ Hooker, wild hair. Sure was nice of Spock to be there.
I always wondered if he knew they were going to put the Enterprise in that scene from Airplane 2.
End of Leonard Nimoy's bicycle story: "It was the one and only time I had hoped that "Amok Time" wasn't just a script!
The "bicycle story" about 16 minutes in is priceless. The chemistry between Nimoy and Shatner was extraordinary. Too bad that the host was so dull.
Gordon Warlow Aspel wasn't too bad an interviewer (his chat show Aspel & Co ran for years) but his predecessor as host on TIYL was Eamon Andrews who was FAR better
Michael Aspel (the host) had a dry wit but also the intelligence to be gracious and respectful of his 'target'. He did not want to steal the limelight. He said just enough but always stood a few steps back to allow the guest to be center stage. A great professional.
Perhaps an ideal example of the cultural differences between Britain and America. One, understated and considered, the other in your face. A good example would be to compare poor Laurel and Hardy on the American 'This is Your Life' they looked shell-shocked and awkward the whole way through and never really relaxed. The presenter of that was so overpowering to be almost sickly.
Michael Aspel is great.
These are all valid points about professionalism, however, with all due respect, I find Michael Aspel extremely boring, emotionally vacant and cold. I grew up watching him on TV and yet never liked him. Frankly I think he got lucky having a TV career. Yes, the host of This Is Your Life shouldn't steal the show, and needs to let the guests have all the attention, but it's perfectly possible for him to do this while still having bags of charm and warmth himself.
I think Richard Whiteley was that kind of a host, and IMHO he would have been a lot better presenter of This is Your Life. Matthew Kelly also did this kind of thing on Stars In Their Eyes - supportive of the guests, but warm and charming. I also love Clive Anderson, who knows how to quietly give others the limelight, yet has a real charm about him. I could probably go on…!
Comedy gold! absolutely and boy o' boy was Nimoy a great story teller as well.
Did they show one of Shatner's early acting appearances, Nightmare at 20,000 feet? It's an early episode of Twilight Zone, he also appeared in another early episode, can't remember the title, but it has a memorable cafe scene concerning a penny fortune telling machine Shatner becomes obsessed with. Highly recommend these episodes for Shatner/Star Trek fans.. his acting intensity and emotion was there right from the start, he really was good and stole the show.
@Paul Langton-Rogers The first Twilight Zone appearance was in s2 e7, “Nick of Time”. Aired 11/18/1960. 25 minutes
Second Twilight Zone appearance, and most remembered, “Nightmare at 20,000 feet”. That’s s5,e3, which aired 10/11/63, also 25 minutes. Both now available in Twilight Zone on Hulu. William Shatner is a beautiful, beautiful man and will be flying into space on
William Shatner is Star Trek original series was the best!
Clearly the producers of the British version of This is Your Life didn’t realize they were using the wrong theme music behind the Star Trek original series footage. Just lazy and sloppy.
Now that wasn’t so bad. Nimoy was spot on.
And don’t forget Shatner’s greatest acting role as a racist agitator in Roger Corman’s “I Hate Your Guts” aka “Shame” and “The Intruder.”
That’s one hell of a movie.
Long Live the Esperanto Film Incubus: Lead role: William Shatner.
I think they should have called that episode, this is half of your life, because William shatner has done so much more than that tiny portion they showed us.
My Hero! and what a lovely man. Its nice to see all the other stars too.
Hayden
A true TV icon. Nuff said.
always liked william Shatner
I love his laugh!
YEP..I WORKED WITH BILL IN NYC, IN THE 1960'S ON A TV SERIES..."FOR THE PEOPLE"..LOTTA FUN..Jck english..1/2019
Where were the rest of the crew? I know he never got on with Sulu but the rest were missing?
I don't think James Doohan liked him either
He will always be Captain James t Kirk lie long and prosper
Not certain who got more sex, Kirk or Bond. Either way, Kirk was the boss!
In his prime he could have played a good American-style Bond, secret agent character, and had his own film series. Never understood why America didn't create a similar long-running franchise.
Shatner was too short to play Bond
Kirk had to pull rank on his inter galactic conquests Bond got laid without a whole star fleet behind him to do his bidding. Bond wins
Red Devil9 Shatner played an Agent in "The Kidnapping of the President".
In terms of who saw the most action, it must be a four-way tie between Captain Kirk, Arnie, The Hoff and Elvis LOL
22:24 - just realised this must be the only time the TOS Enterprise has ever appeared on the silver screen!
The shat has still got it....
The bicycle story is always good.
He drank it?
Shown over Christmas 1989. :)
I love startreck the original
Great to see this here - many thanks for the upload!
Wow! Capt. Kirk at his finest.
Nice upload that - thank you.
Wonderful man.
He divorced Marcy in 1996, after 23 years of marriage.
Thanks for uploading another episode!
As a kid, my favorite non-Trek role he did was "T.J Hooker."/"Kingdom of the Spiders."
As a teen, "Rescue 911."
As an adult, "Twelve O'clock High."
(Was never crazy about his Denny Crane. Or, "Barbary Coast"🤪)
He was also starred in The Twilight Zone two different times, only two episodes "Nick Of Time" as Mr. Don S. Carter in 1960 and "Nightmare At 20,000 Feet" as Robert "Bob" Wilson in 1963. I know it wasn't his main show but I thought he was great in those different episodes that he played as different characters. Also had a part in the television show, "Boston Legal" as Denny Crane and the most recent one is "THE UNXPLAINED" as himself, not really playing any character, it's about a show with certain things you can't explain that is unexplained.
Bill is really funny man I like so much
You know that no one ever said " Beam me up Scotty " ?
anyone else ever find this whole show awkward and creepy, all of them, the whole this is your life thing was just weird.
I remember this interview I lived in England a that time
pity only Leonard Nimoy showed up from the original crew. Though I'm betting George Takei was not asked to attend. ;-)
This show was definitely made for Shatner.
THIS is so good!!!!!!!!
Oh cut the bleeding heart crap
There are literally hundreds and thousands of beeping and
flashing lights.
