Oddly I am not a Trekkie in the slightest, but I do feel saddened by his death. I suppose he was just a part of my childhood in Mission Impossible and Star Trek.

I'm actually pretty sad about this. I'm glad he had such a fantastic life.

Look, strange women lying on their backs in ponds handing out swords ... that's no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony. You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!

Somehow I didn't realise that Leonard Nimoy was quite so old as 83. Not a bad run at all.

I'm a huge Star Trek fan and I've always had a special fondness for Nimoy in particular. Rather dorkily, I've always had a bit of a special joy in the fact that I shared his birthday, but it's not that. Nimoy was a fantastically kind, funny and self-aware actor with a good connection to his fans. He knew what he meant to people and I'm pretty sure that, no matter if he's watching from somewhere else now or if he's just gone, he is either of these satisfied with the work he left behind.

Live long and prosper. Imma go cry and put on some Star Trek.

Nimoy is best known for his playing of Mr Spock is Star Trek. Chances are you will have seen him. And now, I'm gonna pick up a boxset and spend my weekend watching Star Trek in his honour. Wherever he rests, I hope he does so peacefully.
