Times Online posted a new interview with Star Trek The Next Generation star Patrick Stewart, in which he talks about his sucessfull return to the stages, but also talks briefly about TNG and the role of Captain Jean-Luc Picard. Here are few excerpts.
Regarding the character of Picard, which he played for seven seasons on TV and four movies, he said "It came to a point where I had no idea where Picard began and I ended. We completely overlapped. His voice became my voice, and there were other elements of him that became me."
"I'm very proud of the series. I think we did really good work. Every now and then we did absolute crap, but it was 178 episodes. We really fought to keep the standards high - the script, the language, the story lines, everything. We also acquired an astonishing number of eminent fans: several secretaries of state, chiefs of staff, chancellors of universities. Frank Sinatra never missed a show, and Tom Hanks knows the name of every episode."
