Weird.
Characters and uniforms from the Trek feature films.
Engine rooms from “The Next Generation”.
And the Shat saying ” ‘Brolly you Wally.”
Totally bizarre.
It’s from the mass privatisation of UK public utilities in the 1980s, when Maggie Thatcher sold off everything that wasn’t nailed down at rock-bottom prices. The popular phrase against it at the time was, “Now you can buy shares in something you already own.”
Definitely a mash up because I believe that is Stacey Travis that gets beamed up with the Captain & she would have been a lot younger when the original star trek was on.
What show is this from?
No idea what it’s from, but I found the vid
Star Trek….have you been living under a rock for the past 46 years?
I think he means episode.
Full commercial
Thank you – that was a hoot!!!

Definitely thrown together with the mismatched uniforms and sets, but I’m such a nerd for noticing!
I still don’t get what it was even for! Generators? Stocks? Wha-huh?
The British government was privatising the power utilities.
The ad was to encourage the public to buy shares.
