Spanning centuries of storytelling, the connections between 221B
Baker Street as imagined by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and the universe
of Star Trek created by Gene Roddenberry cannot be ignored!
Trekkies and Sherlockians own a very great deal in common, and in
this special panelist episode that took place at 221B Con in
Atlanta, 2014, we'll nerd out over the huge overlap in our Venn
diagrams.
Lyndsay Faye is one of several Babes who had loved all things Trek
for almost as long as she's loved all things Holmes. Join her
along with Stephen Seitz (who is a writer, editor, film critic,
author of Sherlock
Holmes and the Plague of Dracula, and
the host of Book Talk) and Lynne Stephens (entertainment journalist
and co-creator of one of the very first video mashups of footage
from the original Star
Trek: The Motion Picture as
edited into a musical comedy, which resulted in her being invited
to the set of Star
Trek II: The Wrath of Khan by
Roddenberry himself). If you harbor any interest in Spock's
ancient human consulting detective ancestor, or in Data's turn with
a deerstalker, tune in to this special episode!
