Lieutenant Uhura with a new recruit for Star Trek!


Better than meeting just a regular star - Toby Foster met a star from the stars this week, when Nichelle Nichols (Lieutenant Uhura from Star Trek) popped into Radio Sheffield to say hello!

The actress of Galactic fame was on her way to a book signing at Forbidden Planet, but made time to come and tell Toby about what she's been up to, including her latest film, "Snowdogs", in which she stars with Cuba Gooding Jr.

She also spoke about "that kiss", meeting Martin Luther King, and her new novel!

Nichelle proved to be a truly lovely lady - as you can tell from her interview. Click on the red button to beam it straight to you!
