Star Trek was a popular American television series of the 1960s that became a cultural icon of the late 20th century; it later spawned a long-running entertainment franchise that included movies and spin-off TV series into the 21st century. It featured, among other characters, Mr. Spock, Captain Kirk and Doctor McCoy.

Behind the scenes

  • The novella The Doctor and the Enterprise by Jean Airey, initially published privately as a fanzine and then in a semi-professional edition in 1989 by Pioneer Books has the Fourth Doctor (by far the most well-known in the United States at the time) meeting the crew of the original Star Trek series. Many other amateur fan fiction crossovers between the two universes that have been written over the year.
  • The Blue Angel parodies Star Trek, with Captain Robert B. Blandish of the Nepotist standing in for Captain Kirk of the Enterprise.
  • A line cut from the script of The Empty Child would have had the Doctor reply to Rose saddling him with the "Mr. Spock" nickname, "I'd rather be Doctor Who than Star Trek".
  • Over the years, a few actors have crossed over between the Star Trek and Doctor Who franchises. Arguably the best known is Daphne Ashbrook (the Eighth Doctor's companion Grace Holloway) who had earlier played the character of Melora on the Deep Space Nine episode of the same name.
  • Star Trek stars who were considered to contribute to the 1996 Doctor Who TV movie include Patrick Stewart (who was considered for the role of the Eighth Doctor and The Master, Stewart has stated in a recent interview that he might have been considered for the roles but he was never formally approached), Kate Mulgrew (who was considered for the role of Grace Holloway), Leonard Nimoy (who was considered to direct the movie) and Frank Welker (who was consdiered to voice several aliens had the TV Movie pilot been extended to a series)
