31: Beam me up Scotty.

    A homage to the original Star Trek series which I loved as a kid, this was in 1980 when BBC2 showed the reruns. Everey time i see those fader controls in Gordies edit suite I remember Scotty`s transporter controls and the cool little sound they made.

    My top was treated in photoshop to make it yellower and the badge from a chocolate bar wrapper! Just in case you think I have the star trek outfit at home ;)

      Thanks Matt!! All the parts of the image sourced and photographed from all over the house today to keep in with the homespun charm of the original - I think I`ve driven Gordie to distraction with this one! LOL

      Hey Trini, thankyou!!! :)

      Riot Jane: Thanks very much!

      Haha that is awesome and very ingenious with the sweetie wrapper :o)

      That was when I got into Star Trek too. 6pm on BBC 2 in the 80s and 90s had the best evening telly. They still haven't found anything as fabtacular as Star Trek, Buck Rogers or Battlestar Galactica :oD

      I really enjoy this picture. Homages are great if you pull them of nicely like this one.

      Love this!!!!

      Old Scotty was a bit of a multi-tasker on Star Trek, wasn't he? Chief engineer, transportation geek and all round good egg! You'd never think they had a vast crew aboard the Enterprise...
